    Hi there, while trephena is away I will try to answer your queries, and if there is any problem she will add up.
    1. yes make a separate sheet to display ratio formulas, there is copy paste option in excel which you may use to copy and paste formulas. Prove you IT skills with bang bang.
    2. Don’t worry about minor differences in calculations,you have to prove your calculations not others, your formula and calculations should be correct. Other sources use their own formulas and figures. Mind you, you are doing your own research and not copying others.
    3. companies restate previous years statements after taking into account post balance sheet events.
    Good Luck

    @Avian will, yes OB accepts and appreciates the art work I mentioned above in my post, perhaps they consider it under information technology skills.

    If you can afford it, it will serve as one out of many things that you require to write a rap. (I have 2009 edition and comment is based on it)

    OBU should include numbered referencing in Info pack, it is actually a mixture of Vancouver style and Harvard style and markers are accepting it from quite long time, only mentors know this. Why this ambiguity? Why not OB expressly include it in info pack or clearly say in info pack that this numbered style will be marked fail. This would save student like @isookvi from making costly mistake.

    f6 is like small maths problems but p6 is like 360 degrees panorama, so many facts and figures scattered over the horizon, one who learns how to organize and relate, is the one who reach success. Its like f6 in a way, but consider various questions of f6 put into one question of p6 and still they are not given in sequence but in a jumbled manner. I wonder is this ACCA tactics unique in nature or other bodies like CPA of USA use the same style. I have noticed that some time the examiner, in order to make question fail able, uses ambiguous language, which if used in simple language would make pass percentage high. It makes me wonder, is it testing UK tax laws or idiomatic use of language. Has not information technology done away with such things.

    Late filing of income tax, gain tax, vat return
    short payment of taxes
    concealment of income advertent and inadvertent
    misdeclaration

    Hi there, 225% is wrong , its 125%. If the company does not opt for 11% tax credit on losses “for cash” then it may carry forward , you ask for how many years? The answer to your question is not even given in Kaplan text book of 1164 pages and it wont be asked in examination either.

    Thanks for providing wonderful summarized information and I expect this in June 2014 exam and if one learns what you have written he is sure to fetch 10 to 12 marks.
    Well one clue here. What is CFC charge? is it a tax or is it an income figure?

    1. Make graph in excel.
    2. copy graph
    3. paste graph as picture in report (ms word). there are option whether you want to keep link or not but when you paste as picture it will have no link. when you paste graph you get a array of choice below where you paste to how you want to have this paste in the new file. still problem?

    1. If you did your calculations then for example (Appendix A) (the excel sheet where you did your calculations. but also reference appendix to the annual report from where you picked raw data.
    2. If picked from website then (www.xyz.com, 2014).
    Good Luck

    @arslan101 and @trephena
    1.OBU administrators and markers would take it as compliment that they have strict standards. They are not sitting there to do condoning. 🙂
    2. Long patch of text verbatim is not acceptable then should long paraphrasing be?
    3. Universities around the world have their own requirements for referencing so its better to look into your own university or similar universities.

    No primary data is required in topic 8, but I am not aware of topic 18. Sun never sets on the Open tuition, some one will attend your query very soon. Friend don’t be upset. I my self has been wounded by Cupid’s (OB) golden arrow, but still laughing.

    @arslan101 My dear friend, Monash University is an Australian University and what you are talking would not be acceptable to OB. Make no mistake, marker has no so such word as mercy in his dictionary, only take guidelines from Anglia Ruskin University and Coventry University. (in addition to OB).

    Yes every thing included, by the way what you see word count in ms word in lower tab same will be seen by the marker. (: One of the challenging art demanded by the rap is the summarizing.
