解读ACCA考试成绩有效期

发布时间：2019-01-05

相信有不少同学都有这样的情况，选择在大学期间报考ACCA证书，但后期因为计划调整选择考研或者学习实在顾不上考ACCA，那么ACCA可以暂时放在一边备考其他的吗？ACCA成绩有效期是多久呢？今天就来为大家解惑。

ACCA考试期限与CPA一样实行轮废制，即在一定时间里考完规定科目，否则成绩将会无效。根据新政策，专业阶段(P阶段)考试的时限将为7年。超过七年已通过科目成绩都将作废，必须重考。FIA的考试以及ACCA资格考试的基础阶段F1-F9考试将不再有通过时限。

官方邮件通知

亲爱的ACCA学员：

您应该已经意识到ACCA对专业阶段的考试（Professional-level exams）开始实行“7年政策”了，为了避免您已经通过科目的成绩被作废，希望您对“7年政策”认真了解并遵循，这样才能帮助您尽快完成您的ACCA所有科目的考试：

“7年政策”意味着从您通过P阶段的第一门科目开始，7年内需完成P阶段所要求的所有科目，否则从第8年开始您第1年所考过的P阶段科目成绩将会被视为过期作废。

此政策实行滚动式废除，也就是说不会在第8年时把您之前7年所有考过的P阶段科目成绩都废除，只会废除您第1年考过的P阶段科目成绩，第9年会废除您前2年所通过的P阶段科目成绩，以此类推。

政策调整原因

ACCA官方：通过听取雇主和学员的反馈，ACCA决定做出调整：

当前的“十年规定”未曾考虑到ACCA学员的考试起点存在差别。根据考生此前取得的资质及免试资格，ACCA允许所有学员在十年内通过所有科目的考试，却未考虑学员的考试起点差异。也就是说，对于已经取得ACCA认证的财会学位的部分学员，只需要在十年内通过专业阶段的5门考试就可以了。而对于仅满足低注册门槛、也没有获得任何免试资格的学员，则需要在十年内完成14门考试。ACCA希望，所有学员都能够享有公正、同等的机会。

此外很多雇主也表示，设定一个时限颇为重要。雇主很看重知识的时效性，希望ACCA的学员和会员能够掌握新、符合工作场所现状的知识。尽快通过考试还能体现考生立志成为一名专业会计师的决心。不难发现，很多雇主也会通过公司政策对完成考试的时限做出明确规定。

“7年”有效期到期但没考完

你可以接着缴纳ACCA年费，ACCA学员身份继续永久有效（在老规则下，ACCA学员身份将被取消）。

如果你的P段第1科是2011年之前就考过了，那么请给ACCA写信(邮箱地址:students accaglobal.com)，告诉你的实际情况，并要求获得延长的考试有效期。

如果你P段第1科是在2011年考过的(无论6月考过的还是12月考过的)，就要遵守7年有效期规则，看看你还有多长时间的考试有效期，在考试有效期内尽快考完剩下的科目，否则将从第1个考过的科目开始滚动失效，需要重新参加1科或几科(看看2011首次同时考过几科而定)的考试。

(b) Using the unit cost information available and your calculations in (a), prepare a financial analysis of the

decision strategy which TOC may implement with regard to the manufacture of each product. (6 marks)

正确答案：

 

(ii) State when the inheritance tax (IHT) calculated in (i) would be payable and by whom. (2 marks)

正确答案：
(ii) Inheritance tax administration
The tax on Debbie’s estate (personalty and realty) would be paid by the personal representatives, usually an executor.
Inheritance tax is due six months from the end of the month in which death occurred (31 December 2005) or the date
on which probate is obtained (if earlier). However, an instalment option is available for certain assets, which includes
land and buildings i.e. the residence whereby the tax can be paid in 10 equal annual instalments.

4 (a) Router, a public limited company operates in the entertainment industry. It recently agreed with a television

company to make a film which will be broadcast on the television company’s network. The fee agreed for the

film was $5 million with a further $100,000 to be paid every time the film is shown on the television company’s

channels. It is hoped that it will be shown on four occasions. The film was completed at a cost of $4 million and

delivered to the television company on 1 April 2007. The television company paid the fee of $5 million on

30 April 2007 but indicated that the film needed substantial editing before they were prepared to broadcast it,

the costs of which would be deducted from any future payments to Router. The directors of Router wish to

recognise the anticipated future income of $400,000 in the financial statements for the year ended 31 May

2007. (5 marks)

Required:

Discuss how the above items should be dealt with in the group financial statements of Router for the year ended

31 May 2007.

正确答案：
(a) Under IAS18 ‘Revenue’, revenue on a service contract is recognised when the outcome of the transaction can be measured
reliably. For revenue arising from the rendering of services, provided that all of the following criteria are met, revenue should
be recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction at the balance sheet date (the percentage-ofcompletion
method) (IAS18 para 20):
(a) the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
(b) it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the seller;
(c) the stage of completion at the balance sheet date can be measured reliably; and
(d) the costs incurred, or to be incurred, in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.
When the above criteria are not met, revenue arising from the rendering of services should be recognised only to the extent
of the expenses recognised that are recoverable. Because the only revenue which can be measured reliably is the fee for
making the film ($5 million), this should therefore be recognised as revenue in the year to 31 May 2007 and matched against
the cost of the film of $4 million. Only when the television company shows the film should any further amounts of $100,000
be recognised as there is an outstanding ‘performance’ condition in the form. of the editing that needs to take place before the
television company will broadcast the film. The costs of the film should not be carried forward and matched against
anticipated future income unless they can be deemed to be an intangible asset under IAS 38 ‘Intangible Assets’. Additionally,
when assessing revenue to be recognised in future years, the costs of the editing and Router’s liability for these costs should
be assessed.

(d) Sirus raised a loan with a bank of $2 million on 1 May 2007. The market interest rate of 8% per annum is to

be paid annually in arrears and the principal is to be repaid in 10 years time. The terms of the loan allow Sirus

to redeem the loan after seven years by paying the full amount of the interest to be charged over the ten year

period, plus a penalty of $200,000 and the principal of $2 million. The effective interest rate of the repayment

option is 9·1%. The directors of Sirus are currently restructuring the funding of the company and are in initial

discussions with the bank about the possibility of repaying the loan within the next financial year. Sirus is

uncertain about the accounting treatment for the current loan agreement and whether the loan can be shown as

a current liability because of the discussions with the bank. (6 marks)

Appropriateness of the format and presentation of the report and quality of discussion (2 marks)

Required:

Draft a report to the directors of Sirus which discusses the principles and nature of the accounting treatment of

the above elements under International Financial Reporting Standards in the financial statements for the year

ended 30 April 2008.

正确答案：
(d) Repayment of the loan
If at the beginning of the loan agreement, it was expected that the repayment option would not be exercised, then the effective
interest rate would be 8% and at 30 April 2008, the loan would be stated at $2 million in the statement of financial position
with interest of $160,000 having been paid and accounted for. If, however, at 1 May 2007, the option was expected to be
exercised, then the effective interest rate would be 9·1% and at 30 April 2008, the cash interest paid would have been
$160,000 and the interest charged to the income statement would have been (9·1% x $2 million) $182,000, giving a
statement of financial position figure of $2,022,000 for the amount of the financial liability. However, IAS39 requires the
carrying amount of the financial instrument to be adjusted to reflect actual and revised estimated cash flows. Thus, even if
the option was not expected to be exercised at the outset but at a later date exercise became likely, then the carrying amount
would be revised so that it represented the expected future cash flows using the effective interest rate. As regards the
discussions with the bank over repayment in the next financial year, if the loan was shown as current, then the requirements
of IAS1 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’ would not be met. Sirus has an unconditional right to defer settlement for longer
than twelve months and the liability is not due to be legally settled in 12 months. Sirus’s discussions should not be considered
when determining the loan’s classification.
It is hoped that the above report clarifies matters.
