如何选择适合自己的acca课程?
发布时间:2022-05-21
准备acca考生的小伙伴们应该都了解过acca的课程,课程学习的种类非常多,可以说零零总总,眼花缭乱,其实仔细观察,课程内容大都差不多。那么如何选择适合自己的课程呢?下面就给大家分享一下。
一、应该如何选择课程?
一般来说课程分为网课,直播课,面授课三种。
1、网课。如果自身就是相关专业的,同时基础比较好的话,可以选择网课的形式,一方面价格相对来说会低一些,而且上课地点灵活,网络通畅的情况下,随时随地都可以进行学习,另一方面,由于自身有一定的基础,可以跟随网课系统学习,把握考点难点。但是网课也有一定的弊端,因为是网上学习没有人监督,自觉性不强的同学在学习过程中就很容易分心。
2、直播课。直播课兼具网课的优点,在授课过程中如果存在疑虑,可以直接与老师进行互动,一般来说直播课时间是比较固定的,灵活性会低一些,直播过程中学员的人数较多,授课老师可能无法兼顾每一位同学的问题。
3、面授课。面授课的优势在于一般情况下学员人数不会太多,老师通常可以照顾到每一位学员的感受,根据学员的课堂反应及时调整授课计划,在一定程度上能够对学员的听课情况进行监督,互动性更强,是上课效果比较好的一个选择。缺点是时间比较固定,价格可能会略高一些。
二、如何选择acca培训机构?
1、机构规模。机构规模是应对风险、防范风险的重要指标。可以通过了解备选培训机构的规模是否有扩张、在同一个城市有没有开设新的培训点,以及各培训网点的场地、人员情况。
2、教学和研发水平。对于培训机构来说,教学和研发水平是最主要的竞争力,在进行选择、考量的同时,教学水平是首要关注的地方,可以了解不同机构之间课程内容和授课形式的区别,选择最适合自己的课程。
3、服务质量。不仅仅要关注教学,服务也是至关重要的衡量指标。有没有承诺不到位的,有没有随便更改时间却不通知学员的,信息有没有记事本和学员沟通,封锁学员和外界接触渠道的等等,这些都是需要进行考量的。同时签订合同的时候也要特别注意细节,以免落入陷阱。
以上就是关于如何选择acca课程的全部内容啦!希望对大家有所帮助,想了解更多acca备考资讯,请持续关注51题库考试学习网,51题库考试学习网将竭诚为您服务。
下面小编为大家准备了 ACCA考试 的相关考题,供大家学习参考。
(b) Explain why Oliver might legitimately feel he has a grievance against his manager and identify which aspects
of the formal disciplinary procedure David Morgan did not follow or allow in this case. (9 marks)
Part (b):
Oliver may feel he has a grievance as a consequence of treatment which he perceives as unfair. Proper disciplinary procedures are
essential for harmonious relationships between management and all staff. Oliver may feel that he has been singled out and that
David Morgan does not understand the need for equity in invoking disciplinary procedures.
David Morgan did not follow this procedure. No informal talk took place which might have resolved the problem, preferring to
deliver an oral warning, then moving to a written warning and dismissal. Oliver was not represented and his dismissal is likely to
lead to dissatisfaction with Oliver’s peers.
Oliver must now invoke the correct grievance procedure.
(d) The management of Wonderland plc have become concerned about the increased level of operating costs
associated with its petrol-driven ferries and have made a strategic decision to dispose of these. They are now
considering entering into a contract with the Newman Steamship Company (NSC), a shipping organisation based
in Robynland. The contract would entail NSC providing transport to and from Cinola Island for all visitors to the
zoo and circus.
As a result of negotiations with NSC, the directors of Wonderland plc are considering two options whereby NSC
will become responsible for the transportation of visitors to and from Cinola Island with effect from 1 December
2007 or 1 December 2008.
Additional information is available as follows:
(1) NSC would require Wonderland plc to pay for the necessary modifications to their steamships in order that
they would satisfy marine regulations with regard to passenger transportation. The only firm which could
undertake this work is currently working to full capacity and would require a payment of £2,450,000 in
order to undertake the work necessary so that the ferries could be in operation by 1 December 2007. The
same firm would require a payment of £1,725,000 in order to make the necessary modifications so that
the ferries could be in operation by 1 December 2008. The government of Robynland would be willing to
pay a grant of 8% towards the cost of getting the ferries into operation by 1 December 2007, but would not
be willing to pay a grant in respect of any later date.
(2) On 1 December 2002 Wonderland plc paid £500,000 to the Port Licencing Authority of Robynland. This
payment was for a licence which entitles Wonderland plc to use all harbour facilities in Robynland during
the five-year period ending 30 November 2007. The licence could be renewed on 1 December 2007 at a
cost of £150,000 per annum.
(3) Redundancy payments would need to be paid in respect of loss of employment. These would amount to
£1,200,000 if the contract with NSC commenced on 1 December 2007. This amount would reduce to
£750,000 if the contract commenced on 1 December 2008.
(4) Wonderland plc has a contract for the provision of petrol for its ferries which is due to expire on 30 November
2008. Early termination of the contract would incur a penalty charge of £76,000. An emergency reserve
stock of petrol held by Wonderland plc, which cannot be used after 30 November 2007 due to marine
regulations regarding the age of fuel, could be sold for £55,000 on 1 December 2007 but not on any date
thereafter.
(5) The ferries could be sold for £3,300,000 on 1 December 2007. If retained after 1 December 2007 the
ferries would require servicing during the year ending 30 November 2008 which would incur costs
amounting to £150,000. The resale value of the ferries on 1 December 2008 would be £2,900,000.
(6) Stock of consumable items which originally cost £150,000 could be sold on 1 December 2007 for
£110,000 and on 1 December 2008 for £50,000.
Required:
(i) On purely financial grounds, advise whether the management of Wonderland plc should enter into a
contract with NSC with effect from 1 December 2007 or 1 December 2008. You may ignore the time
value of money. (9 marks)
(b) Discuss the key issues which the statement of cash flows highlights regarding the cash flow of the company.
(10 marks)
(b) Financial statement ratios can provide useful measures of liquidity but an analysis of the information in the cash flow
statement, particularly cash flow generated from operations, can provide specific insights into the liquidity of Warrburt. It is
important to look at the generation of cash and its efficient usage. An entity must generate cash from trading activity in order
to avoid the constant raising of funds from non-trading sources. The ‘quality of the profits’ is a measure of an entity’s ability
to do this. The statement of cash flow shows that the company has generated cash in the period despite sustaining a
significant loss ($92m cash flow but $21m loss). The problem is the fact that the entity will not be able to sustain this level
of cash generation if losses continue.
An important measure of cash flow is the comparison of the cash from operating activity to current liabilities. In the case of
Warrburt, this is $92m as compared to $155m. Thus the cash flow has not covered the current liabilities.
Operating cash flow ($92 million) determines the extent to which Warrburt has generated sufficient funds to repay loans,
maintain operating capability, pay dividends and make new investments without external financing. Operating cash flow
appears to be healthy, partially through the release of cash from working capital. This cash flow has been used to pay
contributions to the pension scheme, pay finance costs and income taxes. These uses of cash generated would be normal for
any entity. However, the release of working capital has also financed in part the investing activities of the entity which includes
the purchase of an associate and property, plant and equipment. The investing activities show a net cash outflow of
$43 million which has been financed partly out of working capital, partly from the sale of PPE and AFS financial assets and
partly out of cash generated from operations which include changes in working capital. It seems also that the issue of share
capital has been utilised to repay the long term borrowings and pay dividends. Also a significant amount of cash has been
raised through selling AFS investments. This may not continue in the future as it will depend on the liquidity of the market.
This action seems to indicate that the long term borrowings have effectively been ‘capitalised’. The main issue raised by the
cash flow statement is the use of working capital to partially finance investing activities. However, the working capital ratio
and liquidity ratios are still quite healthy but these ratios will deteriorate if the trend continues.
(c) Pinzon, a limited liability company and audit client, is threatening to sue your firm in respect of audit fees charged
for the year ended 31 December 2004. Pinzon is alleging that Bartolome billed the full rate on air fares for audit
staff when substantial discounts had been obtained by Bartolome. (4 marks)
Required:
Comment on the ethical and other professional issues raised by each of the above matters and their implications,
if any, for the continuation of each assignment.
NOTE: The mark allocation is shown against each of the three issues.
(c) Threatened legal action
Ethical and professional issues
■ An advocacy threat has arisen as Bartolome and Pinzon are in opposition concerning the fee note for the 2004 audit.
■ If Pinzon’s allegations are true this may cast serious doubt on the integrity of Bartolome. Pinzon should be advised to
take their claims first to ACCA’s Disciplinary Committee.
■ If Bartolome has indeed charged full air fares when substantial discounts had been obtained this could be due to:
– Bartolome incorrectly believing this to be an acceptable industry practice; or
– a billing error/oversight.
In either case Bartolome should issue a credit note, although this may be insufficient to make amends and salvage the
auditor-client relationship.
■ Bartolome may have legitimately claimed for full airfares if this was agreed in its contract (i.e. the terms of engagement)
with Pinzon.
Implications for continuation with assignment
Unless the threat of legal action is amicably resolved very quickly (which is perhaps unlikely) Pinzon and Bartolome are in
conflict. Bartolome cannot therefore be seen to be independent and so should tender their resignation as auditor for the year
ending 31 December 2005 (assuming they were re-appointed and have not already been removed from office).
