Using Latest FS + 2017/18 Info Pack

We are all waiting for this – I hope to speak to the actual person responsible for issuing this today so hope to have definite news later this afternoon GMT

I believe for new submissions both topics 17 & 20 are changing slightly and you will probably have to choose a company affected by a recent scandal in CG or CSR respectively. However I need to confirm this. However resubmissions will NOT be affected by the change and can resubmit under the old title.

Good news everyone – I have received this from the ACCA BSc Office

The Information Pack was released earlier this week and is available at at https://www.accaglobal.com/uk/en/student/exam-entry-and-administration/oxford-brookes-bsc-hons-in-applied-accounting.html

Could you also advertise to your students that we have a new twitter feed and a Facebook page where they can keep up to date with news?

Yes, Ehsan as you say, it is a very important change 🙂 as having to update the work for a resubmission was a lot of extra work.

Note the wording “not necessary” – which means if you want to use the very latest financial statements you can choose to do so but this is now up to you and no longer compulsory.

Hi

The latest financial statements available for my chosen organisation are 2015 but the 2016 ones are due by October. I want to start my report, would there be a problem if i used the 2015 statements as the latest accounts even if the 2016 ones were available by the time i submit my report?

Thanks
