    passed with 62 on 5th attempt finally. Its such a hard paper. Don’t be disheartened if you failed. This is the only paper I needed more than 1 attempt for.

    Good luck guys.

    Q3 looked pretty hard to me and QC questions are always tricky. I dunno why so many ppl went for it.

    I feel the same guys. My 4th attempt. Rare topics that may come up on the first ques. are due diligence or analytical procedures & audit risks. I’m hoping for a normal Audit risk or ROMM or Business risk ques..

    AE is audit evidence and MTC is matters to consider…

    I think there was a KPI in the last sitting so I’ll have a look at PFI…

    The recent questions have been really hard. Its really depressing but still a bit of time left so lets do our best..

    Bit confused about the ‘except’ part. In which situation is a sub not RP?
    Is it like two subsidiaries with the same parent are not RP but each sub is RP with the parent? Sorry, my brain can’t process certain things unless its straightforward.

    Hi I really need to know in question 5, the misstated depreciation of 380k i wrote as immaterial but not trivial. was I right? also for tge 7% provision i wrote as material but was’nt sure if I should be considering 7% or the 3% reduction. It was a very annoying question with such large balances. got very confused,

    @ehsanshah said:
    Reduce your part B to 1400 – 1600 words.

    Remove payable days receivable days altogether.
    Remove DPS, because EPS will be enough. And try to write in concise manner for all other ratios. Only put relevant and material reasons in you analysis.

    Are you sure?The rap document said Part B is supposed to be 2000?

    HI,
    I am doing my RAP on T8 using American airlines and Delta airlines.Any tips regading my choice are welcome.

    I am having trouble finding the chairman and directors report for these companies. Trepena has suggested earlier reading them is useful so I am worried I’ll be at a disadvantage not having access to such reports.

    I also want tips on referencing.For my first 650 words in my rap with introductions and the other headings I have not referenced anything.Now I realize this does not look good.Should I be worrying about this?Referencing seems like a complicated process as I am mosly relying on websites for collecting info and there is data that have no authors but the data is definitely correct and I’m not sure if its .Also,how strict are the word limits(e.g 1000 words for introductions,reasons for choosing…,research ques.,research objs…)…Do these limits need to be exact?

    Thanks

    HI trephena,
    I was thinking of doing T8 for the american airlines Delta and UCH because I was having trouble getting access to American Airlines Annual report.But now I have access to AA’s annual report so that won’t be a problem.Do you have any suggestions?I have’nt really done much yet so I can easily switch to AA instead of UCH.
