Thank you so much for your help

In practice you can do whatever you think is reasonable as regards the dates. In the exam there will never ben the sort of problem you describe.

For studying, there are our free lectures. For practice, there are more questions on the ACCA Study Hub but best is also to buy a Practice Kit from BPP

Why question 1 (i) is correct ?

Notes, page 19, point 2: Working Capital is the name given to the NET CURRENT ASSETS = Inventories, Receivables, Cash and cash equivalents, less payables. The lecturer shouldn't have to answer questions like this.

If you sell more of a product then although you get more sales revenue you also have more costs. So selling more means more profit.

I also have the same confusion as I cannot understand why sales variances are done on a profit or contribution and not on the selling price. Is it a rule or can it have a logical explanation as to why?

Consolidated statements are dealt with in a later chapter.

Sir, over here, are we studying the consolidated statement of financial position?

Thank you for explaining everything so well!

The only 'rules' are those outlined in our lectures (and we do not classify accounts as being personal, real, or nominal).
