I am now an affiliate after completing all exams with first time passes.
The OpenTuition lectures were crucial in my studies, as well as your lecture notes. Thank you so much to all the lecturers and staff for the support.
69% and now officially done with all first time passes.
Thank you so much Open Tuition, couldn’t have done it without your help
60% – extremely shocked but delighted.
Thank you Open Tuition for all of your amazing help.
61% – delighted
Thank you open tuition as always for your invaluable help and resources
The exam paper was so disappointing. The amount of marks on risk management in question 1 was extreme. Reassuring that so many think the same.
Think this will be my first ACCA fail.. roll on March 🙁

I discussed transfer pricing, low interest loans from the subsidiary to parent, or subsidiary paying royalties instead of a dividend.

no, they don’t remark your questions, they just add your score up again. It’s pointless and a waste of money.
74% – so so happy.
Thank you Chris and Stephen, you are the absolute best!
Good luck everyone else
I got negative goodwill originally, but as the conditions for $4.3 million and $200k existed at the acquisition date, the goodwill was revised within 12 months. This gave a positive goodwill on acquisition
Passed with 66%
Absolutely buzzing as I took this at the same time as AA and thought I’d bombed it.
Thank you so much to Chris and OpenTuition, you really are amazing.
Passed with 77%
Thank you so much OpenTuition, couldn’t have done it without you!
I think this one is going to my first fail in 9 attempts. I was praying for consolidated SOFP and SOPL came up instead. Hopefully I blagged a few marks on that, and scraped 50 altogether.
My second question was ratios which was actually decent enough. Still not confident at all, really tough exam for me 🙁
71% and another one ticked off 🙂
Huge thank you to OpenTuition for the notes and videos, they were a great help.
Best of luck to everyone else
75% – first applied skills module so very relieved
Thanks Open Tuition for the great videos!

Yeah it was the same for me. Threw me a bit after the exam because I was thinking maybe I’d missed something?!

For the sole trader I calculated the income tax liability + Class 2 + Class 4. Did you also do this or you tried a different approach?
I did the same but as his remuneration was £8,000 I calculated it as there was no NIC employer/employee payable as a limited company. I don’t think NIC is payable on dividends but could be wrong and I can’t be bothered getting my textbook to check, I’m burnt out haha
sahilr99 wrote:Yeah i got the same paper, it was benefitial to pay himself dividends rather than gettng employment income, am i right?
Yes I got that answer that he should remain as a limited company, but there wasn’t a great difference between the two 🙂

I got a ten marker on whether an individual should continue trading as a limited company and pay himself dividends or whether he should move to self employment.
Wow the whole 3 hours was a blur now. Now I’ve got the fear that I missed something or part of a question in Section C. Hopefully not.
This was my first CBE with the constructed responses, there was one question where I only wrote text relating to the April 30th/April 5th accounting periods but the whole answer was on the spreadsheet rather than a text box. Is that normal?
Sorry, I’ve got the post exam fear
