I think this exam was very difficult. I went through all past exam papers available on the ACCA website and none of my “exam big questions” were similar to the papers I was revising.
This is also the paper I had, and I think it was the most difficult paper after reviewing all the comments on here.
I don’t remember what I answered. I am highly unhappy some tests variants are so difficult compared to others.
Section c questions on the afternoon paper were not too bad I though although I don’t think I did enough to get all the marks.
One was to cost out cost of a new contract with relevant costs. And the other was to discuss a company’s position with the given data. I felt there wasn’t enough data to discuss enough for 20 marks but looking at what ppl got for the morning paper I think this wasn’t a bad question.
You work backwards beginning with a profit of $700,000; add $350,000 to contribution; then prorata sales and variable cost
Section A and B were awful for the most part. Some of the MCQs I know I answered incorrectly because I flagged them and went back to them but was shattered as I could’ve done with another 20 mins.
Section C was pretty straight forward. One of the questions was very similar to the Kaplan interim exam question on relevant costs and the other was assessing an education provider’s performance mainly with non financials. I think I did ok in them, but imho, I would probably need 70-80% in Section C to pass this exam.The last F5 computer base exam was a diseaster! The keyboards provided were pure plastic and the constant noice from all of them made the sensation like hearing a digger outside the window. Absolutely not possible to concentrate, necessary of reading the question few times made rather additional frustration on the top of the exam stress. It was kind of traumatic experience! My advice – take paper base F5! Especially if not very very fast in typing and sensitive to very noisy atmosphere.
Question 21-25 Part B is too difficult to solve in 20 minutes. I think it must be appear in section C in written context. Nonetheless, in general, part B is too hard for MCQs. I think F5 June exam is the most difficult exam in several years recently
