Variances - words and numbers: At certificate stage, you need to do more than crunch numbers. But without the numbers, can you attempt the written parts of the questions?

Article Abstract:

The Paper 8 exam always includes a question on planning or control under the 40% Management Accounting section, and it is important for students to spend time thinking about their calculations. The examiner may test cash, p&l accounts, or flexed or operating budgets. A major part of the syllabus is variance analysis and calculations need to be learnt by heart. However to cover both numerical and written skills a worked example builds up an analysis to compare budgeted to actual results.
