The Big 4 hire interns with just one thing in mind: Fresh grads doing the dirty work for free. I did an internship at a Big 4 for about 3.5 months in both the Internal & External audit departments and what did they teach me? NOTHING! It was a waste of time to be honest.
Oh I forgot to mention that I also finished F9. I’d done with all F papers except F6
I misunderstood the “Going Concern” question wrong .I thought that they needed reasons why the company is a going concern (surviving), not the opposite T_T. DAMMIT!
It happened to me at first. You’ll have to download the docket information first (just above the “Download Docket” button, and then download the docket. If that doesnt work then restart your browser and download the docket again.
I think that if it will be intended for use then it can be classified as a FA.
Profit on sale of non-current assets is the actual profit gained from the transaction (Carrying value – SP)
Proceeds on sale of non-current assets – The selling price (correct me if I’m wrong. I’m not really good with cash flows :P)
I spent about a month on revision for both F5 and F9. What I did was:
1) Spend 2 weeks studying both revision notes available on the site (studying a different paper every day which in your case would be Day 1 – F5, Day 2 – F9, Day 3 – F5, etc while also doing a couple of questions relating to each chapter from the past papers.
2) Spent the remaining just solving questions from the revision kit (BPP) while cycling between both papers every now and then
3) Spent the last week solving past paper questions (just the previous 4-5 years)I dont think that taking F7,8,9 together would be a good idea. I found paper F9 to be really challenging and the exam was kinda tough. If you’re studying fulltime then give it a shot if you want. If you’re studying part-time then I would say just go with 2 papers for now
Why the f**k would they release the results on a Saturday night?! COME ON! Now my weekend is ruined…
A 6% increase is nothing compared to the increase in education fees nowadays. We should be lucky (and thankful) that ACCA fees are pretty much affordable for most.
If you study the notes along with the lectures then solve as many past papers as you can, then yeah it will help you pass. You’ll have to finish F1,2,3 first I guess.
If you need books you can order them from ZamZamPublishing (UAE) (That is, if you live in a country close to UAE). I ordered my books from there.
You could either purchase study texts (BPP or Kaplan) online or you can rely on the OT lectures and study notes along with past exam papers. I actually start with the OT lectures and study text (whichever you choose) and then use the OT lecture notes for revision followed by past exam papers. It worked for me.
There are many bookstores where you can order the study texts and exam kits from.
Nothing is wrong with them. In fact, they’re amazing! But I dont really wanna concentrate just on the notes. I wanna study both the OT notes and the study text (not sure which one though)
Sorry but I still dont really get it =/
I would be thankful if you explained it to me using a simple numerical exampleThey are always repayable at par. Loan notes always have a par value of $100 (correct me if I’m wrong)
Oh and one more question (sorry to be a bother):
Is it ok if I use 2012 study materials instead of the 2013 ones? Does it make a difference?
