I don’t believe they have made a mistake. My understanding is that for calculating lifecycle profitability then sunk costs are included and opportunity costs are ignored.

As I replied on the other thread, there are no changes to the syllabus for this subject in 2025/26. Hope this helps.

From the ACCA syllabus guide for 2025/26-

“There have been no additions to, or deletions from, the syllabus.”

A 2024/25 textbook should be fine in this case.

Here is a quote from the ACCA syllabus for September 2025 to June 2026-

“There have been minor changes to the study guide for September 2025 to June 2026 which are
shown below:

• IFRS 18
IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure of Financial Statements was issued on 9 April 2024
and supersedes IAS® 1 Primary Financial Statements as well as impacting (but not
superseding) IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows.
The formats for all financial statements (including the statement of cash flows) under IFRS
18 are now examinable. IAS 1 is no longer examinable.
Management-defined Performance Measures (MPM) will not be examined in the Financial
Reporting Exam.
• Other
There have been minor wording changes made to some syllabus learning outcomes (SLO)
but these do not change the context of any SLO.”

The lectures are designed for September 2024 to June 2025 exams. There are minor changes to the syllabus for the exams from September 2025 to June 2026 inclusive. However, much of the syllabus remains the same.

I think it depends on the scenario. If you are put in the scenario of representing a consulting firm then ‘we’ would be best used. If acting as an individual then ‘I’ would be appropriate. Your sentence of “Overall, I recommend the Board accepts X because XYZ” seems appropriate and professional if acting as an individual consultant.

[mrjonbain]

However, if you are talking about an individual selling shares in a company and then partially rolling over the gain with new investment then yes this can be done.

Welcome to the Opentuition forums. In terms of a company as an entity, companies do not qualify for BADR so this can’t be done.

[mrjonbain]

You are welcome.

Welcome to the Opentuition forums. Since it’s a lower price and likely to be taken, then that’s the cost that is used barring any additional contrary information that does not exist in the above scenario.

[mrjonbain]

I would have a look at Paula Byrne’s website. I believe she has a book for the advanced taxation variant. I know this is obviously not ideal.
