MARK SCHEME for the May/June 2010 question paper for the guidance of teachers
9706 ACCOUNTING
9706/43 Paper 43 (Problem Solving (Supplement)), maximum raw mark 120
This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and candidates, to indicate the requirements of the examination. It shows the basis on which Examiners were instructed to award marks. It does not indicate the details of the discussions that took place at an Examiners meeting before marking began, which would have considered the acceptability of alternative answers. Mark schemes must be read in conjunction with the question papers and the report on the examination.
CIE will not enter into discussions or correspondence in connection with these mark schemes.
CIE is publishing the mark schemes for the May/June 2010 question papers for most IGCSE, GCE Advanced Level and Advanced Subsidiary Level syllabuses and some Ordinary Level syllabuses.

(d) V has higher gearing, higher risk. ROCE of V is higher, but return after interest may not be better. V may pay interest at a higher rate with a premium for the added risk. V has lower dividend cover, hence less assurance of dividends continuing. Vs profits, otherwise available for dividend, are being diverted to pay interest. Other reasonable comment.

(c) Overabsorption of overheads: This means that the amount of overheads added to production costs exceeds the total amount of overheads, because actual production was higher than anticipated when the OAR was calculated. Underabsorption of overheads: This means that the amount of overheads added to production costs is less than the total amount of overheads, because actual production was lower than anticipated when the OAR was calculated.
