发布时间：2022-05-20

近期有不少同学都在准备ACCA考试，在备考过程中，掌握一些小技巧往往可以让大家学习达到事半功倍的效果。下面51题库考试学习网就给大家介绍几个备考小技巧，快来看看吧!

1、考生报名前请认真评估一下自己的实力(如：基础怎样、每天有多少时间可以用来学习、学习能力、自控能力怎样等等)，报考前需认真考虑再做决定，切勿盲目跟风报考，抱着报名必考，考了必过，不要中途放弃的原则。

2、做题练习时不在多而在精，切忌采用题海战术，错题可以多做几遍加深记忆，直到完全理解其中的知识点，相应解题思路等。历年真题是很重要的，一定要亲自动笔做题，因为看懂题不等于会做题。

3、acca考试是机考模式，考前需要做几套模拟机考试题，严格按照考试时间进行模拟测试，不要到了考场因为不熟练机考系统而耽误时间。

4、可以加入一些能提问和回答acca相关问题的群聊，建立学习小组，找一两个学习小伙伴，通过与其它小伙伴相互探讨，也可增强自己对所学知识的理解与记忆。

5、做笔记时一定要经过自己的思考，建立思维导图，对知识点进行归纳和总结，切忌照抄。

6、如果想要找一个老师带着自己学习，不同老师可能在不同章节处各有其独特的讲解方法，选择适合自己的最重要，但“师傅领进门，修行看个人”。

7、知道可以打印准考证时应该及时打印，谨防错过打印时间。知道考场后，离考场、离家较远的考生需尽早订酒店。

8、一定要及时复习所学知识，不要盲目追赶老师的讲课速度，跟着自己的学习计划进行。每次学习新的内容前要大致回忆一下之前的内容，这样既可以加深记忆，又有利于对之前所学的知识进行巩固。

9、记录每天自己学习情况，在学习焦虑时可以看看自己曾经的努力，增强自信心。

以上就是准备ACCA考试小技巧的全部内容。大家都清楚了吗?希望可以帮助到大家。想知道更多ACCA考试资讯，请持续关注51题库考试学习网。

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。

(a) The following information relates to Crosswire a publicly listed company.

Summarised statements of financial position as at:

The following information is available:

(i) During the year to 30 September 2009, Crosswire embarked on a replacement and expansion programme for its non-current assets. The details of this programme are:

On 1 October 2008 Crosswire acquired a platinum mine at a cost of $5 million. A condition of mining the

platinum is a requirement to landscape the mining site at the end of its estimated life of ten years. The

present value of this cost at the date of the purchase was calculated at $3 million (in addition to the

purchase price of the mine of $5 million).

Also on 1 October 2008 Crosswire revalued its freehold land for the first time. The credit in the revaluation

reserve is the net amount of the revaluation after a transfer to deferred tax on the gain. The tax rate applicable to Crosswire for deferred tax is 20% per annum.

On 1 April 2009 Crosswire took out a finance lease for some new plant. The fair value of the plant was

$10 million. The lease agreement provided for an initial payment on 1 April 2009 of $2·4 million followed

by eight six-monthly payments of $1·2 million commencing 30 September 2009.

Plant disposed of during the year had a carrying amount of $500,000 and was sold for $1·2 million. The

remaining movement on the property, plant and equipment, after charging depreciation of $3 million, was

the cost of replacing plant.

(ii) From 1 October 2008 to 31 March 2009 a further $500,000 was spent completing the development

project at which date marketing and production started. The sales of the new product proved disappointing

and on 30 September 2009 the development costs were written down to $1 million via an impairment

charge.

(iii) During the year ended 30 September 2009, $4 million of the 10% convertible loan notes matured. The

loan note holders had the option of redemption at par in cash or to exchange them for equity shares on the

basis of 20 new shares for each $100 of loan notes. 75% of the loan-note holders chose the equity option.

Ignore any effect of this on the other equity reserve.

All the above items have been treated correctly according to International Financial Reporting Standards.

(iv) The finance costs are made up of:

Required:

(i) Prepare a statement of the movements in the carrying amount of Crosswire’s non-current assets for the

year ended 30 September 2009; (9 marks)

(ii) Calculate the amounts that would appear under the headings of ‘cash flows from investing activities’

and ‘cash flows from financing activities’ in the statement of cash flows for Crosswire for the year ended

30 September 2009.

Note: Crosswire includes finance costs paid as a financing activity. (8 marks)

(b) A substantial shareholder has written to the directors of Crosswire expressing particular concern over the

deterioration of the company’s return on capital employed (ROCE)

Required:

Calculate Crosswire’s ROCE for the two years ended 30 September 2008 and 2009 and comment on the

apparent cause of its deterioration.

Note: ROCE should be taken as profit before interest on long-term borrowings and tax as a percentage of equity plus loan notes and finance lease obligations (at the year end). (8 marks)

(b) Calculate the taxable benefit in 2005/06 if Jan were to use the accommodation offered by his employer. You

may assume that the rules for calculating benefits are the same as in 2004/05. (3 marks)

正确答案：
(b) Benefit – accommodation
If Jan accepts the offer, he will occupy the building for a period of eight months in the tax year 2005/06 (from 6 August 2005
– 5 April 2006). The benefit will last for six months.
The taxable benefit is the higher of:
(i) The rent borne by the company                                                      = 600 x 6 = 3,600
(ii) The annual (rateable) value                                                            = 6,000 x 6/12 = 3,000
i.e. ￡3,600.
In addition, as the property costs in excess of ￡75,000, an additional benefit arises. The excess is subject to the official rate
of interest, and is calculated as follows:
(155,000 – 75,000) x 5% = 4,000 x 6/12                                         = 2,000
Total taxable benefit is ￡3,600 + ￡2,000 = ￡5,600.
Tutorial note: strictly speaking the additional charge does not apply if the expensive property is rented rather than owned –
therefore the above answer, whilst the most commonly given is not technically correct. One mark was awarded if the
additional benefit calculation was performed as shown above and an alternative one mark was awarded if the additional
benefit was not calculated for the correct technical reason.

(ii) Briefly discuss TWO factors which could reduce the rate of return earned by the investment as per the

results in part (a). (4 marks)

正确答案：
(ii) Two factors which might reduce the return earned by the investment are as follows:
(i) Poor product quality
The very nature of the product requires that it is of the highest quality i.e. the cakes are made for human
consumption. Bad publicity via a ‘product recall’ could potentially have a catastrophic effect on the total sales to
Superstores plc over the eighteen month period.
(ii) The popularity of the Mighty Ben character
There is always the risk that the popularity of the character upon which the product is based will diminish with a
resultant impact on sales volumes achieved. In this regard it would be advisable to attempt to negotiate with
Superstores plc in order to minimise potential future losses.
