    Still looking for that especially from the new examiner point of view. If some have it would be better to share among.

    Thanks in advance!

    BPP
    P5
    Q1
    * Often require a significant level of data analysis using numerical techniques: KPIs, EVA.
    * Transfer pricing.
    * Ratios.
    * Analysis of quality related costs.
    * ABC
    * Performance management frameworks: building blocks, performance pyramid or balanced scorecard.
    Q2-4
    * Quality management.
    * Information reporting: CSFs, KPIs.
    * The application of strategic models: PEST, Porter’s 5 Forces, the value chain.
    * HR frameworks: reward & appraisal systems.
    * Risk management.
    * Environmental management accounting.
    * Read recent articles: big data, integrated reporting and performance management models (BCG and 5 Forces).

    First Intuition
    • Critique an existing performance management system and the performance hierarchy.
    • Quality as a critical success factor.
    • Risk and uncertainty.
    • Effective use of information systems.
    • Reward systems linked to performance measures.
    • Performance model (balanced scorecard, building block model or performance pyramid).
    • Activity based principles.

    The above were pasted straight from PQ Magazine.

    Personally, I am expecting the Performance Pyramid to show its face.

    However, it’d be great to hear from students who have been on a revision course with BBP or particularly Kaplan?

    Cheers
    Ryan
