Do we need to memorise calculations for the AA exam or will they be provided in the exam?
October 18, 2020 at 8:58 am #589666If you mean ratios for analytical procedures they are assumed knowledge of FA and not provided. If you understand their meaning they should be easily remembered.
October 18, 2020 at 7:19 pm #589767Yes thats what i meant. Ok thank you. Im actually sitting my first ACCA exam after doing my degree quite some time ago so quite a bit nervous. The ratios is the only bit of calculations for the exam isnt it? everything else is pretty much theoretical?
October 19, 2020 at 7:55 am #590238Most marks in Section B will be for “narrative” (i.e. non-computational) answer points; but this does not mean “theory”. AA is a very practical exam based on scenarios (mini-case studies). Ratios for analytical procedures could require calculation as could materiality of a misstatement (to decide whether an audit opinion should be modified or not).
