ACCA考试有免考的机会,相信大家都了解,那么使用免考的利弊小伙伴们清楚吗?下面51题库考试学习网就和大家一起来了解看看,感兴趣的小伙伴赶紧来围观吧。

ACCA免试的优点

首先考试科目的通过率高低不定,ACCA免考不用担心通过率问题,减轻了一部分的考试压力,可以更好投入到后面的学习。其次可以直接参加后面阶段的考试,加快了学习的进程。

ACCA免试的缺点

1)以中外联合教学模式对接出去的学生,如果学生选择ACCA免考政策,那么在择校和选择专业上面就受到很多约束。因为你如果要想取得免考资格,就必须选择对接能享受免考的海外大学,同时只能选择享受免考政策的商科专业。

2)从海外大学专业课程衔接来看,免考对会计类专业的学生帮助有限。以英国为例,英国的会计与金融专业与ACCA有着很高的切合度,很多科目内容一致。学生如果通过了F阶段的9门科目,能力上相当于英国一个本土的会计与金融专业毕业生。由于学生在国内只是读了F阶段部分课程,直接插读海外大学的大二大三还是有一定的难度;但学生如果在国内学习了F阶段的全部课程,这样就有更为扎实的专业知识和语言技能来胜任大二大三的专业课程。由于有了良好的专业基础,还有助于学生本科毕业获得一个较高的毕业等级,从而申请到更为优秀的硕士学校。

3)从国内中外联合教学(ACCA方向)教育现状来看,国内目前大部分中外联合教学(ACCA方向)模式的项目,大部分仅以海外学历教育为主,国内阶段开设F阶段3-9门课程,有3+1模式和2+2模式。宣导ACCA9门免考但同时国内阶段不教授F阶段完整的课程体系的对接模式,实则对学生造成诸多不利。

4)从课程深度上讲,ACCA免考对学习和应考P阶段的课程无实质性的帮助,而F阶段的考试会对后续的P阶段考试产生良好的推进作用。

5)甚至免考对F阶段来说,如果很多科目都没有学习过,就会直接导致学生基础没有打好,对整个课程体系也不了解,简单来讲就是免考会让学生F阶段学不好。

由此可见ACCA的免考机会各有利弊,具体如何选择,在于你个人实际情况和最终目的。如果大家对于ACCA考试还有其他问题,可以多多关注51题库考试学习网,我们将继续为大家答疑解惑。


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。

3 The Stiletto Partnership consisted of three partners, Clint, Ben and Amy, who shared the profits of the business

equally. On 28 February 2007 the partners sold the business to Razor Ltd, in exchange for shares in Razor Ltd, with

each former partner owning one third of the new company.

The recent, tax adjusted, trading profits of the Stiletto Partnership have been as follows:

Year ended 30 June 2006 92,124

1 July 2006 to 28 February 2007 81,795

Clint, who was 65 on 5 October 2006, retired when the business was sold to Razor Ltd. He is now suggesting that

if the sale of the partnership, and his retirement, had been delayed until 30 April 2007, his total tax liability would

have been reduced. Clint’s only other income is gross pension income of £6,100 per year, which he began receiving

in the tax year 2005/06. Clint did not receive any salary or dividends from Razor Ltd. It is estimated that the

partnership’s tax adjusted trading profits for the period from 1 March 2007 to 30 April 2007 would have been

£20,760. Clint has overlap profits of £14,250 brought forward from when the partnership began trading.

Razor Ltd manufactures industrial cutting tools. On 1 July 2007, Razor Ltd will subscribe for the whole of the ordinary

share capital of Cutlass Inc, a company newly incorporated in the country of Sharpenia. It is intended that Cutlass

Inc will purchase partly finished tools from Razor Ltd and customise them in Sharpenia. It is anticipated that Cutlass

Inc’s annual profits chargeable to corporation tax will be approximately £120,000.

Ben and Amy will be the directors of Cutlass Inc, although Ben will not be involved in the company’s business on a

day-to-day basis. Amy intends to spend one or two weeks each month in the country of Sharpenia looking after the

company’s affairs. The remainder of her time will be spent in the UK. Amy has employment contracts with both Razor

Ltd and Cutlass Inc and her duties for Cutlass Inc will be carried out wholly in Sharpenia. Cutlass Inc will pay for

Amy’s flights to and from Sharpenia and for her husband and baby to visit her there twice a year. Amy is currently

UK resident and ordinarily resident.

The system of income tax and corporation tax in the country of Sharpenia is broadly similar to that in the UK although

the rate of corporation tax is 38% regardless of the level of profits. There is a double tax treaty between the UK and

Sharpenia based on the OECD model treaty. The clause in the treaty dealing with company residency states that a

company resident in both countries under domestic law will be regarded under the treaty as being resident only in the

country where it is effectively managed and controlled. Sharpenia is not a member of the European Union.

Required:

(a) (i) Calculate Clint’s taxable trading profits for the tax years 2006/07 and 2007/08 for both of the

alternative retirement dates (28 February 2007 and 30 April 2007). (3 marks)

正确答案:

 


(c) Suggest ways in which each of the six problems chosen in (a) above may be overcome. (6 marks)

正确答案:
(c) Ways in which each of the problems might be overcome are as follows:
Meeting only the lowest targets
– To overcome the problem there must be some additional incentive. This could be through a change in the basis of bonus
payment which currently only provides an incentive to achieve the 100,000 tonnes of output.
Using more resources than necessary
– Overcoming the problem may require a change in the bonus system which currently does not provide benefit from any
output in excess of 100,000 tonnes. This may not be perceived as sufficiently focused in order to achieve action. It may
be that engendering a culture of continuous improvement would help ensure that employees actively sought ways of
reducing idle time levels.
Making the bonus – whatever it takes
– It is likely that efforts to change the ‘work ethos’ at all levels is required, while not necessarily removing the concept of
a bonus payable to all employees for achievement of targets. This may require the fostering of a culture for success within
the company. Dissemination of information to all staff relating to trends in performance, meeting targets, etc may help
to improve focus on continuous improvement.
Competing against other divisions, business units and departments
– The problem may need some input from the directors of TRG. For example, could a ‘dual-cost’ transfer pricing system
be explained to management at both the Bettamould division and also the Division with spare capacity in order to
overcome resistance to problems on transfer pricing and its impact on divisional budgets and reported results? In this
way it may be possible for the Bettamould division to source some of its input materials at a lower cost (particularly from
TRG’s viewpoint) and yet be acceptable to the management at the supplying division.
Ensuring that what is in the budget is spent
– In order to overcome the problem it may be necessary to educate management into acceptance of aspects of budgeting
such as the need to consider the committed, engineered and discretionary aspects of costs. For example, it may be
possible to reduce the number of salaried staff involved in the current quality checking of 25% of throughput on a daily
basis.
Providing inaccurate forecasts
– In order to overcome this problem there must be an integrated approach to the budget setting process. This may be
achieved to some extent through all aspects of the budget having to be agreed by all functions involved. For example,
engineers as well as production line management in reaching the agreed link between percentage process losses and
the falling efficiency of machinery due to age. In addition, TRC may insist an independent audit of aspects of budget
revisions by group staff.
Meeting the target but not beating it
– To overcome the problem may require that the bonus system should be altered to reflect any failure to control costs per
tonne at the budget level.
Avoiding risks
– In order to overcome such problems, TRC would have to provide some guarantees to Bettamould management that the
supply would be available during the budget period at the initially agreed price and that the quality would be maintained
at the required level. This would remove the risk element that the management of the Bettamould division may consider
currently exists.

(ii) Assuming the new structure is implemented with effect from 1 August 2006, calculate the level of

management charge that should be made by Bold plc to Linden Limited for the year ended 31 July

2007, so as to minimise the group’s overall corporation tax (CT) liability for that year. (2 marks)

正确答案:
(ii) For the year ended 31 July 2007, there will be two associated companies in the group. Bold plc will count as an
associated company as it is not dormant throughout the period in question. As a result, the corporation tax limits will be
divided by two (i.e. the number of associates) giving an upper limit of £750,000 (£1·5 million/2). As Linden Limited
is anticipated to make profits of £1·4 million in the year to 31 July 2007 it will pay corporation tax at the rate of 30%.
Bold plc can earn trading profits up to £150,000 (£300,000/2) and pay tax at the rate of 19%. It will therefore
minimise the group’s corporation tax liability if maximum use is made of this small companies rate band, as it will save
£16,500 (150,000 x (30% – 19%)) of corporation tax for the year to 31 July 2007. Bold plc should therefore make
a management charge of sufficient size to give it profits for that year equal to £150,000.
While the transfer pricing legislation no longer applies to small and medium sized enterprises, Bold plc should
nevertheless ensure that there is evidence to support the actual charge made in terms of the services provided.

4 All organisations require trained employees. However, training can take many forms, some of which are internal to the organisation.

Required:

Explain what is meant by the terms:

(a) Computer based training. (3 marks)

正确答案:
4 All organisations need appropriately trained employees. Due to the nature of modern business, especially the professions, much of this training is internal and often on a one to one basis. Accountants as managers should therefore be able to understand the different approaches to training and which of them is the most appropriate and cost effective for the training requirements of the organisation.
(a) Computer based training can be inexpensive and is based upon user friendly interactive computer programs designed to enable trainees to train on their own and at their own pace.
