    84%…I’m very surprised, i thought i might actually fail this exam because it was unlike any question i had practiced (finished kaplan kit twice, used my ALP platinum teacher’s notes, and got 73% and 82% in my mocks) but the exam seemed totally new…

    Hey
    Capital allowances are supposed to be deducted from the TATP, but if you mean you had to add it, then yes, because the business was ceasing trade, no items could be added in the annual investment allowance or first year allowance column,and all the items were sold so there could be no written down allowance as it is charged completely on the year of purchase and none in the year of sale. When all the items in a pool are sold, a balancing adjustment is required. If there was a profit, you make a balancing charge and if you make a loss, you make a balancing allowance, in this question there was a profit overall, even when we had to take lower of cost or selling price,so there was a balancing charge resulting in the capital allowance being added to the TATL

    I would recommend that you get a tutor, however i you can not, you can start by making a strict schedule. Read the chapters in the book thoroughly, ask any questions from anyone you know with accounting or commerce knowledge, it is very basic so most people in this field will know, or post questions with references on opentuition, clarify all the concepts. Memorize basic terms. Read extra notes on opentuitiom relating to your topics. You can fill the revision kit after reading the topic but dont mark it on the book so you can do it again. Try not to look at answers on the back, find them in the book. After youve completed the sudy text and kit, you can complete the kit again, or try extra tests on opentuition. Your studying should not take more than 45 days, spend the 15 days practicing. The exam is not that hard and if you have done FIA or a level accounting or business it should be a piece of cake! Good luck!

    I gave f4 in December of 2013, but failed with 2 marks. My tutor advised me to complete f7 and f9 first in June 2014, which i have done, results pending, and try my luck at f4 in December 2014. Now i have done a bit of research and realized, i may not be eligible for BSc honors in Applied Accounting because i gave f7 and f9 before f4. Can anyone kindly advice me what should i do? In myacca account, they still say i have opted for BSc honors.
    Do i need to pass IELTS? or can i give f4 with f8 in December 2014 as i had already planned. Kindly reply as soon as possible so i can start studying without further delay…
