Absolutely gutted at ACCA!! My membership got sealed on 15th sep and i still have not received my certificate! ! I have followed up numerous times but more disappointment! ! Its tough for us to study hard for 3 years as is and the institution then making us wait for more than 6 weeks is just abhorrent! ! I even paid my membership in June, before receiving MY certificate! Just disgusted at the attitude and service!
Hi guys,
Quick question re PER, i am currently writing my perf objectives. Please can someone who has completed and signed off tell me if the word limit is 300 words. can it be bit more say 350? has someone’s PER got rejected if you exceeded the word limit by only a tad bit? thanks!! i need to submit this week as im impatient now so any help would be appreciated!I passed with 60% after 2 failed attempts last dec and Jun’15!!! This was my last so now an affiliate! Please can someone advise steps after this… also, whats a finalists list published by ACCA?
Thank God. Congrats to those who passed and those who did not make it, try and try again. Work smart. All i know is, the first two attempts – after leaving the exam room i knew i was failing. However, this time i was confident even though did mess up a few places (this was the only exam i failed in my 14 exam journey so was very disappointed but did not give up!). Just hang in there and Good luck!!Waiting anxiously for the result tomorrow! !! No sleep til then. I feel like a zombie
Was looking on Google to find the answer to this query too and it took me approx. 1 hour of searching and not getting anywhere. Only 2 minutes into your answer and I can find the values depending on any confidence level now! Thanks John, you’re awesome.
Does anyone know when the results will be released if i take the exam in december 2015?
ThanksFirst paper in acca that iv failed with 47%. Passed p5 with 63.
Any comments on whether i should apply for a review? ThanksIm using Kaplan and trying to figure out how they have calculated market growth, share and relative market share for the BCG matrix. Please can someone explain to me. the above query has helped me to arrive at the market growth. However, i am unable to answer the remaining two aspects. Please can you help. Thankyou.
Food For Thought (FFT) has been established for over 20 years and has a wide range of food products.
The organisation has four divisions:
(1) Premier
(2) Organic
(3) Baby
(4) Convenience
The Premier division manufactures a range of very high quality food products, which are sold to a leading supermarket, with stores in every major city in the country. Due to the specialist nature of the ingredients these products have a very short life cycle.The Organic division manufactures a narrow range of food products for a well-established Organic brand label.
The Baby division manufactures specialist foods for infants, which are sold to the largest UK Baby retail store.
The Convenience division manufactures low fat ready-made meals for the local council.
The following revenue data has been gathered:

Hi, please can you answer this urgently.
In the first question of june 2011, when Rose acquires additional ten percent interest in petal on the last date, i am finding it hard to understand the transfer of equity – negative movement. please can you explain. thanks a ton:-}<cite> @lovesweety said:</cite>
I cant believe it,i attempted F4,F5 AND F9, i was pretty sure to fail f5 and pass the other two easily. i passed f5 and f9 but was so shocked to see that i failed f4 at 45%. still wondering how it happened.I sat for F4,F5 AND F8! All theory papers and im really bad with theory but miraculously passed all three. Ill say it again, God exists, and miracles do happen. 😀
i thought ill fail so badly but actually scored 61%. miracles do happen id say 😀 Thank God
I cleared FI to F9. Does it mean I am an ACCA Affiliate now? Will they issue me a certificate ?
I meant passed for an hour has past. Incorrect. Anyway received them yet. I hope passed is true fr my results tho

My thoughts:) :
Current outstanding balance is $10,000 ($9,000 to external users plus $1,000 to Ham). And Jo (? – who introduced capital only $1,000) can’t be granted release from obligations. So all three partners should pay in total $5,000 according to their initial proportion (60%, 30%, 10%). What did you answer and what do you think??Not sure if im right…. but ita said no liab in future debts and it was agreed so I checked her out while calc potential luability… even tho partners are severally liable… hmm I think im failing big time coz rest of the paper didnt go well either……
Didnt the exam invidulator announce prior to the exam? .. well I took only blue pens wimme during dec exams.. wen the guy read out the instructions… he had few black pens so I was saved…
Did u do it throughout the paper?<cite> @seth1 said:</cite>
Hi all.
Regarding the types of procedures, I remind all that the question was asking TYPES of procedures to gain audit evidence, and not TYPES of SUBSTANTIVES procedures to use PROVE OR AUIOU. So, my approach was to write
controls test
substantive test
representation letters
third parties confirmation
evidence from legal authoritiesas I felt these were different TYPES of acquiring evidence
Uh oh I wrote documentation check inspection etc…. damn hope thts not wrong.. but they are analytical procedures so…
