    You have to go by the titles of the chapters. In broad terms:
    1-4 = A
    7-9 and 24-25 = B
    12-15 = C
    10-11 and 16-23 = D
    5-6 and 26-29 = E

    Hi,

    At the end of the chapter in the notes, it says when you have finished this chapter you should attempt the AA online MCQ tests.

    I can’t find the mcq tests, at least not to ones which are related to chapter 1.

    The links just directs me here – https://opentuition.com/acca/aa/ Are they definitely here or have they been removed?

    Many thanks,

    Jake

    Hi Sir,
    I have a small query regarding answer presentation. Do we have to refer the ISA with section number for definitions and meaning?

      No – please see here https://opentuition.com/topic/citing-isa-in-the-exam/

      The IESBA is one of the standard-setting body of IFAC. It sets international ethical standards. The IESBA Code is the compilation of the ethical standards.

    what is meant by an unqualified opinion?

      September 12, 2018 at 5:01 pm

      You will come across this as a technical term in audit and assurance in Chapter 5.

      In non-technical terms, if you were to ask me “what is your opinion on such-and-such a movie” – I might reply “oh I thought it was really good” or “I thought it was good except for that bit when such-and-such happened”.

      My first response can be described as unqualified – I have an opinion – it is really good and I do not express any reservations. My second response can be described as qualified – you would understand that in some respect I did not consider it all to be really good.

    Hi Ken,
    Does Review engagement always gives limited assurance?

    Many thanks in advance

      I don’t know if it has to be always limited assurance as it depends in the engagement contract, but in my experience preyyt much almost always.

    Good day Sir,

    Thanks for the wonderful lectures, I have been using open tuition lectures and resources since F1. I wanted to ask if I am allowed to download the lectures on youtube from the chapter links given from the open tuition site.

    Kind regards

      Thank you for your query.

      The lectures are not to be downloaded – they should only be watched online as that is the only way that we can keep the website free of charge. When users occasionally click on ads that generates a small amount of revenue for us. If lectures are watched off-line, no revenue can be generated and we will have to cease business.

      Thanks.
