Hi kamsingh, I posted my thoughts on Q4 and feel the same, Q4 was so different to previous past papers it was totally unfair! Like you say it is a business so I guess they need the money!! What annoys me is the world is tough, us students try, not not only work full time but study, these examiners have their qualification would it be so difficult for them to make the paper somewhat slightly easier to pass?!

I think its unfair about how they word the questions. Question 4 was a nightmare.. you are expected to work out the P/E which is Share price / Earnings per share.. Yet they didnt give you the number of shares… I think everyone should write to the ACCA ( i have ) and say how unfair this exam was. They probably want us all to fail so we have to pay £80 resit fee. Remember ACCA is a business and need to make money. Maybe they should have given us a question of how Businesses con thier customers… i would use ACCA as my example and definately get 25 marks !!
Please can everyone email ACCA
Hopefully they would take our frustration on board and lower the pass mark slightlyHi all, I found Q4 a massive challenge! I have never seen a question on WACC based on that type of scenario in all the past papers I studied from! I was completely confused and gutted! The examiner really tweaked the question this time round on a section of the paper that has been somewhat similar in the past papers, I feel 25 points robbed! I would have accepted it had it been in past paper & I chose to ignore it but never has it been structured in this way!! I have the previouse comments and most of you feel like me, unsure how to work the answer out! I wish we could do something to put out thoughts forward to ACCA. The questions asked in Q4 were exactly how they were presented in past papers but the scenario was tweaked hugely (I felt) by the examiner. I just feel gutted as studied so hard and I know I will have to re-take the exam due to the scenario being so different. What do you all think?
