I’m having the same problem right now. Either the entire page will not load or Part 2 of Unit 1 will not load where I am at right now. Tried 3 different browsers (chrome, firefox,edge) and no luck. Cleared cookies and cache, enabled popups, disabled adblock extensions and still stuck on loading.
First fail in ACCA with 41%. Not too hard of a blow as I expected to fail FR last term and got 50%. Feeling nothing but motivation to try harder now.

I think I messed up with section C, 10 mark question, which I got stuck with. It was about income tax that should be saved on shares and income tax that should be paid on the remaining amount after gift and calculation of the chargeable gain. I was absolutely fine with solving these type of questions during my practice, but this time I chose the wrong %-ge, instead of taking 45% a chose 38.1% as for dividends. I still cannot believe I did that, I got it all wrong 🙁
Another problem with the question 10 was that the area for answer was so tiny so I couldn’t see the structured answer. I think if I could see it properly, I would spot the mistake.I also got frozen on the 15 mark question, first part with the losses.
So I think I lost at least 16 marks.
Everything else in part C was easy.
Can anyone remember if it was asked in one of the questions to calculate CT? I remember that I had only calculation of TTP. Could it be that they didn’t include it in this exam, by having only TTP calculation? Also I hardly had any questions on VAT.Part A and B was ok.
I hope I did enough to get at least 50%It will be very disappointing if I didn’t pass
Got this same question. Remembered the 38.1% at the last second, Just not sure if I used the right figures.
Section B and C wasn’t as difficult as I expected with the exception of the Higher skills 10mark question. Had to guess a few in Section A because I was running out of time.
Yes it does. Thanks a lot! Didn’t consider it being treated as a small value asset from their point of view.
Good Luck tomorrow! This is my first and hopefully last attempt at PM. My main problem is the chance of overlooking important information, in situations like:
You have two products, one has an annual budgeted production of 100,000 units and the other product has budgeted production of 10,000 units per month. I sometimes read too fast and not notice the per month, assuming its an annual figure like the first product.
And also doing up a operating statement where you have to reconcile a budget surplus, and shortfall.
Looked at both of those pages on both the 2018 BPP revision kit and text and I’m not seeing any throughput accounting questions. Do you have the Name of the questions(/of the company) by chance?
For the adverse and favourable variances, I recommend you watch the Opentuition Variance analysis videos on youtube and really try to understand the reasoning behind it.
From my understanding. overheads are absorbed before you know the actual figure. Say for instance, you have already absorbed overheads with a value $32,000, but the actual overheads ended up being $32,100
Actual o/hs: $32,100
Absorbed o/hs: $32,000The difference would be $100, meaning you were $100 short of the actual overheads. Therefore, you have under-absorbed your overheads by $100.
Say you have absorbed overheads at $32,300, and the actual overheads were again $32,100. You have overabsorbed overheads of $200.
If there is an error in my explanation, anyone can feel free to correct me.
Passed with 85%. Thanks to a combination of actual classes, your online classes, BPP revision Kit and your help forum where i searched up questions I had difficulty with, that was already answered there in detail.
I’m really grateful for these free student resources, and will make a donation as soon as I am able to.
