d. Total indirect costs for the business divided by the total number of units produced.

[Hint : (d) would produce an overhead absorption rate, but it would be far too generalised to be of
any practical use to the business ]

b. ` 4.0
c. ` 2.3
d. ` 4.6

[Hint : The overhead cost per labour hour is ` 1,00,000 plus 50% of the stores costs `15,000, =
`1,15,000 divided by 50,000 hours.

concerned should be?

a. Debited to the company profit and loss account.
b. Credited to the company profit and loss account.
c. Carried forward to the next accounting period as a cost saving.
d. Used to reduce next period‘s overhead recovery rate.

[Hint : Variances should always be dealt with in the profit and loss account for the period they
relate to.]

307. A variable cost is?

a. One which varies in proportion to the level of fixed cost incurred.
b. One which tends to vary with the level of activity.
c. One which changes over time.

a. The level of activity at which the business operates most economically.

310. When a business is faced with a limiting factor (one which limits the activity of an entity) and 
there
is a choice to be made between options to follow, which of the following statements describes the
optimal course of action?

a. Choose the option which gives the highest unit profit.
b. Choose the option which gives the highest unit contribution.
c. Aim to achieve a balance of activities covering all of the options.
d. Choose the option which gives highest contribution per unit of limiting factor.

constraints operate in ‗not for profit organizations‘, other non-financial factors may mean that a
sub-optimal course of action is followed.]

311. XYZ Ltd has the following alternative planned activity levels:
Level A Level B Level C
Total costs ` 1,00,000 ` 1,50,000 ` 2,00,000
Number of units produced 5,000 10,000 15,000
(Fixed overhead remains constant over the activity range shown.)
The fixed overhead cost per unit is:

a. ` 20.00
b. `15.00
c. `13.33
d. `10.00

[Hint : The total cost increased by ` 1,00,000 in moving from Level A to Level C, therefore if fixed
overheads are constant, variable costs are ` 1,00,000 for 10,000 units, which = `10/unit. At Level A,
total cost is ` 20/unit so fixed overheads absorbed on a unit basis are `10.]

312. Which of the following statements regarding marginal costing is incorrect?

a. It is a useful long-term planning technique.
b. It assumes that fixed costs remain fixed over relevant activity ranges.
c. It assumes that other costs vary in proportion to activity.
