I have been preparing for the INT variant for P2 and just realised that I actually registered for the UK variants.
Do I need to apply the FRS 102 in the question 1 or only when specifically asked for please?
Thank you
March 4, 2018 at 10:15 am #440032I have a question on this too as I see in my notes and the Kaplan exam kit that there is a section for UK GAAP focus. I entered for INT – does it mean you ignore this?

Hi,
You need to apply UK rules throughout the entire exam, but they aren’t too significantly different so I wouldn’t worry too much.
Thanks
March 4, 2018 at 9:19 pm #440221If you look at the P2 Uk past question papers, they ask specific questions regarding different treatments using IFRS or FRS 102 (the uk IFRS equivalent).
I think in all the past questions I’ve seen, you apply the UKGAAP when specifically asked.
I hope so.
