    I would like point out that there is a ton of difference between Acca practice platform and the real exam

    1 : you have adjust every exhibit. So the font fits in for you to view. Like you do in a pdf file.

    2: right click mouse button to copy the requirements into the word pad. Didn’t work as well.

    3 . You simply cannot cut and paste your numbers in spreadsheet, down below when making room for workings . All the values get lost. So plan ahead with all your workings and where will the final solution would be. Once you have done a particular working. You cannot move it around to adjust. Eg. I made a Npv table at row 40 but still ran out of space above and did my tax working below the NPV table
