It cant be '16'.................That was a mistake..............At times i wonder whether Institute does such things on purpose.....................It was very confusing.....................But i believe those who must have taken '36' wont face a problem but what about the others???
M nt sure whether i missed something or not but even in Q5(a) relating to Standard Costing, I felt the confusion...............The no. of units were greater than the Selling Price amount & nowhere it was mentioned that Selling Price is p.u.................That looked absurd to me.........Did any1 face the same problem or did i missed something in the question.................

i have attempted that question without realising the mistake in the question, as there was shortage of time, i didnt get to resolve the question on realising the mistake when the question was unsolvable, will we get full marks for their error in the question paper? i hope they do, i m scared coz i might not pass just because of that error.? It will cost me an attempt. Is there ay solution to this?
