    I see, then it would be 50 of B, As I would not make up not mentioned assumptions that B has a total contribution margin higher than A even though that A has higher number of units! I Understand that this can be confusing is it doesn't clarify the assumptions for the circumstances, unless there is a choice of “Cant be decided” for the lack of info provided!

    Yea it would be confusing, but given that B is less than A, then I would choose B as it will be the next best option! Because the question says “Can be switched” not Switched which indicated that its an option. but if it was “Switched” then it would be confusing as whether the company has chosen the right option which implies that maybe B has a higher total contribution margin even-though it has lower number of units!

    But what if product A and B are completely different product on completely different product lines. if you product B, you cant produce any A. Then wouldn't A be the opportunity cost because its costing the company 100 units of A to product 50 units of B?

    That's right given they choose to produce B, but in the question its clear that it is preferable to produce 100 units than 50 units.

    If in year 1, 1$US=.75 euro, and in year 2, 1$US=.60 euro, did the euro appreciate or depreciate?

    Jonny, in that case the US dollar depreciated. Or you can say Euro appreciated because 1 dollar can buy less in Euro…it takes more to buy.

    Bear-Bear, I am back up to 70%. Yes, NINJA trending scores can really screw with your confidence. I am wondering if I can start fresh again. When I bought it, I was still using becker and after each chapter, I would go to NINJA and only pick the chapters I went through with. I'm averaging 73% though.

    Becker questions are tough. I think it's on purpose to prepare you for the exam although it makes me stress out endlessly until they release the scores.

    Just got ot of BEC exam. Walked out of center with more stress. Overall experience is just horrible. I thaught I was prepared but it knocked me out in no time. Such a depressive feeling I have right now. Probably need a day or two to recover and then get back to studies. I really hate this CPA exam now!

    @csvirk: why do you feel that you did so bad? what were your trending scores on your review material? was the material you saw on the test completely new and never seen before in your studies or you just did not know specifics enough? i know i hate it when people tell me this but i think you did better than you thought and i will keep my hopes up for you!

    @jessica my trending was around 80. Some questions were completely new to me. Had to guess on some question. I ran out of time when I was on third writing question ( only wiring portion which I had some idea). I just wrote BS in writing
    Section. My writing skills are poor so not sure what to expect on score release day.

    @csvirk, if some questions were completely new to you, its possible that they could be pretest items. I think I speak for everyone, everytime someone leaves the testing center, we all feel so bad that we actually think we failed. Keep your chin up. You've passed two other sections. Keep on trucking,
