  2. Thank you so much Mr John Moffat! I have passed my AFM exam in September 2023 in the first attempt. I absolutely cannot thank you enough. I have used your lectures and studied from the Kaplan Exam kit directly. This series was extremely useful for my exam.

    • There are some changes for the September exams, but they are not major and everything in the current lectures remains examinable.

      We will be uploading updates immediately after the June exams.

    • There are no changes to the syllabus for June, so the lectures are OK (but obviously do also read all the Technical Articles on the ACCA website, and work through all of the questions in your Revision Kit).

      • In future please ask this kind of question in the Ask the Tutor Forum and not as a comment on a lecture.

        A normal calculator should have a square root button. However that is not what your first question seemed to be asking, and to take a 5th root (or to calculate something to an unusual power) then you must have a scientific calculator, and of course you can use it in the exam.

      • CALCULATION USING NORMAL CALCULATOR :
        Step 1 : Underroot 12 times
        Step 2 : subtract 1
        Step 3 multiply with number in the power ( in above case 1/5)(in case of 3 times root 1/3) ( or in case of 2/3 multiply by 2/3)
        Step 4 : add 1
        Step 5 : press x= (multiply sign and equal to) 12 times
        The result would be the answer
        Try with number 32 as it has result 2 ( follow the above steps)( in india we do like this)

  14. Dear Sir

    I have passed AFM in the examination attempt of June 2019 and attained 65 marks. The credit goes to you for this success. The method of your teaching would make difficult concepts of AFM much more easier to me to understand and learn.

    Thank you once again, many prays and best wishes for you.

    Best regards, Ahsan (Pakistan)

      The only change is the addition of initial coin offerings (crypto currencies) to the list of sources of finance.
