December 7, 2020 at 11:53 am #598057Hi Singa, I’ve had issues to launch my exam too. I’ve accessed the book an exam section and right next to the “launch” button there is a “rebook” button. Just follow the steps in the screen and you’ll be able to reschedule. That’s how I’ve done anyway.

It was not hard or not easy
December 7, 2020 at 4:39 pm #598137We were supposed to finish just after 12.00 noon. there were technical issues so finished the paper at 5.00pm Kenya time. I just started the exam and my timer froze so I had to be moved to 2 different computers before I could continue with the exam. I had questions on audit risk, and key controls to rely on in internal controls, factors to rely on when using an expert, going concern, substantive procedures, on 3 or 4 different items.
December 7, 2020 at 5:14 pm #598142Anybody got a question like below to calculate the proof in total? If so what are your answers guys??? I got 2.25m
Prior year revenue is 1.8m
One third of this is through online sales and the rest through other means.
The forecast revenue for current year is expected to increase by 25% through online sales and they have extended the production with fifth factory and revenue from that is expected to be in line with others.December 7, 2020 at 5:28 pm #598145It was certainly not easy, but I don’t think it was impossibly difficult either..
December 7, 2020 at 5:29 pm #598146@rashard I got 1.95M
1.8/3 = 0.6 (online sales)
0.6*1.25 = 0.75 (accounting for the 25% increase in online sales)1.8-0.6 =1.2 (warehouse sales)
1.2+0.75 = 1.95M
This is how I arrived at my answer I don’t know whether it is correct
December 7, 2020 at 5:31 pm #598147For audit risk and IC deficiency, is it wrong if we copy paste the risk identified or deficiency from the scenario without typing it in our own words? Will we be awarded to 0.5 Marks for identification if we copy paste it from the scenario?
December 7, 2020 at 6:00 pm #598157Wasn’t an overly difficult exam but wasn’t easy either, found the multiple choice questions quite tricky. Written questions a bit more straight forward, rushed my controls question at the end due to lack of time management but hopefully done enough!
December 7, 2020 at 6:04 pm #598162Hello! The mcq you are talking about us assessment of NEDs.
Rumeration committee and re-election of directors.
Only directors were re-elected 3 years after other 3 were done after 1 year.December 7, 2020 at 6:36 pm #598168Got that same answer myself!
December 7, 2020 at 6:41 pm #598174@addebattista For which question?
December 7, 2020 at 6:48 pm #598175@ranganaherath they had told something fifth warehouse. Then I got the balance two third divided by 4 warehouses which was held previously.. I.e (1.2/4)*5=1.5 plus 0.75=2.25
December 7, 2020 at 7:54 pm #598188Hi,
I believe the questions stated 2 thirds were in-store sales a 1 third online, so the answer should have been $2.25M?
December 7, 2020 at 8:06 pm #598190I also got 2.25m
