@Saffron_Kidd
Жыл бұрын
@@SteveWillisACCA Sir as we measure the % change in the cost from one year to another, it is quite obvious that since there has been a change in Sales Revenue (or Activity Level) the cost is also expected to increase. So shouldn't we rather firstly calculate the % of cost in relation to the Sale Revenue (i.e. Cost Margin) for each year and then measure the % change from one year to another. Hope you have understood my question and would help me out 🙏🏻
@SteveWillisACCA
Жыл бұрын
Interesting question! Yes, the 'cost as a percent of sales' measure is relevant as you want to focus your discussion on most significant costs. But it's not required as an additional calculation for earning a mark when making a point about an expense changing. Remember it's important to include cost behavior in your discussion as well. It's a different issue if a fixed or variable cost is increasing.

Hi Steve, thankyou for this video, it was super helpful! Please could you explain where you got the 3.8% drop and 74% drop figures in the changes in margins? Thanks 😊
@SteveWillisACCA
2 жыл бұрын
Hi Grace, the 3.8% is 50/52 - 1 : the drop in %, not percentage points. For example, when system downtime in the next part goes from 2% to 4%, this is a 100% increase, not a 2% increase. 4/2 - 1 = 100%. You could say system downtime increased 2 percentage points but that doesn't tell you about the importance of the change. Make sense?

Dear Steve, why did you write -1 in the workings of some ratios?

Жыл бұрын
Just to show the %. For example, 11/10=1.10 you can see that's a 10% increase, but if you subtract 1, you get 0.10 the 10%. Either way you get the same marks if you interpret it as a 10% increase. Likewise, 9/10-1=-10%.

Hi Steve. I've watched so many of your videos to help me with my upcoming PM exam. I'm now overthinking the format of the answers, I have been using your table format for all performance evaluation questions I've practiced but for a 20 mark 'discuss the performance' question... the model answer is written out in paragraphs. So now I'm unsure if I can use the table format for these big mark questions, could you please advise?
@SteveWillisACCA
Жыл бұрын
Hi, you can absolutely use the table tool--there are no extra marks for it, nor any taken away for not using it. As long as your numbers can be understood you'll get the calc marks, and if they understand your write-up, you'll get the discussion marks. But using a table will keep you organized and more aware of time elapsing. I recommend using the table.

It depends on what you write. If you say, "Admin costs are up 50%. This is a concern because admin costs are usually fixed. Maybe the owners broke their promise and took their salary increase early." you would get a mark. If you said. "We see admin costs went up 50%. Admin costs are usually fixed." No mark, the second example is not evaluation.
