Answers to multiple choice questions anyone ? Paper based
March 6, 2018 at 4:46 pm #440716I only remember that I had a lot of B’s answers.
March 6, 2018 at 5:11 pm #440725How did people deal with the foreign currency in the ratio question?
March 6, 2018 at 5:11 pm #440726I don’t remember foreign currency in the ratio question ??
March 6, 2018 at 5:24 pm #440728Me neither !
March 6, 2018 at 5:31 pm #440732It was 6m Creditor for PPE i guess. The initial rate was 2 dinar/usd and when payment was made the rate was 3 dinar/usd. This meant that there was 1m realized gain on this. For the ratio analysis this mean that Operating profit decreased by 1m (As far as i remember it was 2050 before so 1050 after) and also that Retained earnings decreased by 1 million (which meant that it changed the Capital employed number as well)
March 6, 2018 at 5:35 pm #440734I didn’t remember this on computer exam at all
March 6, 2018 at 5:38 pm #440736Are you talking about F7? Did we really had dinars to deal with? I really cannot remember that or I have missed. For sure, there were not any foreign currency exchange rates given on F7, so I guess either you are talking about another exam or we have different versions in different locations? Does anybody else have foreign currency on F7?
March 6, 2018 at 5:39 pm #440738*I was on a paper based exam
March 6, 2018 at 5:42 pm #440739i think there was different papers, i did the cbe
March 6, 2018 at 5:43 pm #440740I do not recall having any questions on foreign exchange … i did paper based too international

March 6, 2018 at 5:54 pm #440747I did CBE on F7. It might be the case that the paper and the CBE differs slightly i am not too sure.
March 6, 2018 at 6:01 pm #440748The last three exams have not had regular consolidated accounts. Is this going to be a recurring thing
March 6, 2018 at 6:04 pm #440750i had CBE ver. this morning, ask two other people in the same room, we all had different questions
seems like there were at least three different versions… may be moreMarch 6, 2018 at 6:05 pm #440751Tice brand – I brought down to 5.5
I seem to remember another answer I had as 7.2
And I think another impairment answer was maybe .5 after I used surplusMarch 6, 2018 at 6:11 pm #440753Did ROE include retained earnings ?

What was your value for the Profit/Loss on Disposal?
March 6, 2018 at 6:16 pm #440758That sounds like my long questions… I did CBE. Did you do the ratio commentary in excel? I found that difficult!
@beloslavaMarch 6, 2018 at 6:19 pm #440759Operating cycles ? Gross profit margin I had about the same before disposal. Operating expenses reduced. Interest cover was 17 times , but I think I used the wrong profit
Ratio analysis – 9 marks was a lot , considering there were only three ratios and I couldn’t find much to talk aboutMarch 6, 2018 at 6:20 pm #440760How do we know which five questions were the ‘red herrings’ ? Is it the easy ones ? (For example how is bargain purchase treated – to p&l)
March 6, 2018 at 6:22 pm #440761Discontinued operation figure. I know you put to p and l. But the comments I thought went to notes. But I just looked up and I was wrong – they can also go to p&l
