They probably post tips when they receive it, so if Kaplan isn’t listed, probably no tips announced yet.
There is no percentage on tips – you just have to study all syllabus. Tips are educated guesses.

Hi John,sorry for asking here but it easier for you to understand my question.
Could you explain please from above example why do you add 1 to annual rate (calculated as 1/99 * (365/25) *100% ?
My calculation is 1/99 * 365/25 * 100 = 14.75%Thank you.
Oxana, 365/25 is power of 1.010101 not multiplied by it

guys share exam tips please….Well, shared above? They are intelligence guesses so don’t assume they will definitely come up and study.
It is funny to read working capital and investment appraisal as a generic exam tip.
This is not a rocket science, every student who is well prepared will know they come up every exam..Director question said ignore the bribery.
Directors have a duty of not accepting benefits from 3rd parties too. Something different than bribery act in this context.They are just guidance. Noone knows what question examiner sets. You can’t question spot in ACCA exams. This has been told several times by examiner(s) and other students or tutors.
Inco terms = international commercial terms.

there is an article about it. you should read for your variant.Variant is up to you to choose – nothing to do with where you live.
If you mean if it is ok to not write total assets or liabilities etc, yes it is.
I think main issue is the study materials. I studied for F5 with Kaplan in addition with a revision kit from BPP and tbh there isn’t enough questions to practise Ann Iron’s style.
May be places like Kaplan or BPP could update their materials accordingly – considering they are charging significant amounts to students.
Also when I’ve read their exam tips – I cannot see how they can advice / expect ABC while I remember examiner stating that she’s not going to ask ABC just for the sake of it.
My main issue with F5 was the tuition and materials as I rely on them. They weren’t up to date and were reflecting past papers rather than new examiner in my opinion.
It wasn’t hard but stupidly I got panicked and made simple mistakes. If i fail, it will be because of this.
Fair paper.

What kind of exam was that i mean what the hell man ? no easy marks for students no main areas examined . very tricky questions. You ppl saying that they should kick out the examiner but i think this has been done on purpose as after exam is made its then checked by a commite, atleast thats what ann iron said, so they passed this kind of bullshit means they did it on purpose. bloddddy acca team and that ann iron!
Quote:I think it is not really the way to act to call people bitch or anything else.It is a though paper indeed and I studied with both BPP and Kaplan textbooks , revision kits last time when I passed it and also read the examiner’s articles.
She mentioned somewhere I cant remember that people shouldn expect ABC to come up as it is too easy and she’s very obsessed with target costing and throughput. So not much surprise.
Last sitting – there was budget question fully written. So was it the same this time ?
Relevant costing, learning curves came up last time – So seeing some people were surprised they weren’t asked is surprising.
It is a difficult paper indeed but if you had clear workings and some good discussions – you can still pass. Don’t demoralize yourselves.
It is just an exam – it is not end of the world and more valuable than you guys.
You would call it Statement of Comprehensive Income or Income Statement.
In this case , SOCI or IS.Don’t think Statement of Profit or Loss is a term that is used 🙂
Do you have pocket notes ? Kaplan pocket notes state what UK variant of the question would ask. BPP ones might have them too.
Goodwill is one of the differences for instance. If it is negative it goes to a separate line in uk variant etc.
Good luckFinal assessment answers are on en-gage already.
If you mean revision mock – it comes with pass quarantee therefore they won’t put answers up till the deadline passes.try to use mind maps and instead of staring at your notes, learn actively . take notes etc. and practise past exam papers – hope this helps/
