Hi, my response below:
For the mcq regarding development costs – I can’t remember the exact question but I recall 3 years in the question, were the development costs $1600 amortised over 3 years thus $533?

1 – I had 6400 i think. 100K – discount – £5K transaction cost @ 8%
2 – yeah credit 4290 i think
6 – same
9 – same
10 – receive 2500 cash 1500? think it was A
11 – 3 options, think it was D (present, probable, reliable estimate)
12 – A was a sub, think i worked it out as it held 144 of 280 votes, which is more than half. the other wasnt as it held 45% regardless of whoever doesn’t challenge them

Cant remember the rest, Section b was ok. Interested to know other thoughts.

One observation made on this paper is that it was very similar to the one for December 2016. The last two questions were based on Group Accounts (consolidation) and Interpretations in March 2017. This was very similar to the arrangement in December 2016 where we had a question on consolidation and interpretations.

Could it be that ACCA decided to repeat the question arrangement because students did not perform well in these two areas?
