April 20, 2015 at 1:35 pm #241914You have not said what you want from me!!
You have simply copied part (and only part) of the question from the ACCA’s specimen exam, and you don’t need me to tell you the answers since they are on the ACCA website as well.
I assume that you have watched all of the free lectures for Paper F2 on this website?
If you say which answer is causing you a difficulty then I will try and help, but please don’t just type up an entire question and expect me to provide an answer!
