Reading time started from 3pm so the exam ended at 6.15pm for us here at Sunway. (I assume that's how it's done elsewhere too)

P7,was crappily petty and difficult. Now considering I haven't put much hopes in p2,failing p7 together would be real

haha.. so i assume u miss dat le =p
gud luck wit P2 course mate.. i gave up wit it ed..

and for F9, i dunno if i sud giv up with it..
seems like its much more diff den our previous FMC paper..
dun even know wad to do bout it.. and im having this paper on thursday..

any advise for F9 paper, anyone?

and btw, is Dec 2007 the first sitting for F9 as well? or is it June 2007?

p6 is always difficult even under the old syllabus...


i thought all oledi uploaded in the previous pages..so pls search it out..

because the question is a impairment test question..
it is compare the CA to RA...and it is compare the 3.0 to 3.3 so no goodwill is impaired..
and so i wat i feel weird is why they wan to add the negative goodwill to find CA before they compare to RA...

i do all the p7 question ... however donno the audit procedure correct or not
i tot the 1st question is abt a/c std when i look at the case at 1st glance...however ...
the question =.= doesnt much related to a/c std

sorry, wanna edit my words.. The article that he wrote DID came out in Q3, just im uncertain bout it, so skip that qn.. haha..

But I heard my fren said examiner put P7 very similiar with pilot for this first round.?

HOW MANY of u think that this sitting paper quite similar wit PILOT PAPER ? Any papers ?

Wan to ask, pass ACCA only its affliate, to get memebership, need 3 years experience...
But, I don't understand this site ... JPA only recognise ACCA if u only gain membership ?

But, it recognise Penang Sistematik Kolej ACCA course... (I wan to apply for DPLI post)
See the link, http://www.interactive.jpa.gov.my/webinter...MainIktiraf.asp

Well,in bits and pieces. Like if pilot paper focused on an area,it seemed to just pop up as a small part in the real exam.

Pilot paper was more forgiving in the sense it wasn't as specific,imo (can't really remember the paper itself now,nor the pilot paper =p)

If i last minute pull out from exam....and didn't enter exam hall. mean i need to paid again for the exam?
feel like to give up....the fees cannot be claim back right

Negative goodwill (badwill)-occurs when fair value of net assets acquired is greater than the purchase price. Check back the fair value of net assets, is there any indication of downgrade when the time acquired? For example, During acquisition FV is deemed as 3M but then later, investigation found out only 2.7M. The amount is just an example..

Confirm can't lo

2 hrs more to F8 =) ... Scary scary

45 minutes to go .. even scarier

hihi for those who already sit for the exam,

Please share if u think the exam question are similar with pilot paper?

sob.. no one answered my ques..

i repeat again =p

is Dec 2007, the first sitting for F9?

Yea,it should be,why do you think it's not the first sitting for F9?

F8 is over . . .I'm just hoping for a 50% pass !!!
I didn't even know the 1st question was for substantive or Test of controls ..
And the last question .. meaning and purpose of the paragraphs ... Ack .. Dunno how 2 do at all ..

http://www.accaglobal.com/documents/crs.pdf

is this the 2 documents that we need to fill up in the exam???
how to fill this up correctly??? first timer.. hee.. if i see these papers.. i knoe how to fill up.. but i need advice on how to fill it up correctly...

IM BACK.. after a long cannot reply nor msg through lowyat (for which reason i dun know why?)a message appear "you dont have authorise to reply to that discussion etc.." previously using the nick HBK..
nyway, just finish F8.. really its halfly a surprise.. purchase,stock,going concern came out..and what???ACCA code of conduct..but enuf to answered it coz currently study for P1..so lil bit of knowledge...then there is last question..no.5 where ask about additional procedure for depreciation..
but it seems this round is fair,hopefully the marker doesnt strict much..the easy the paper,the more stricter the marking scheme..yet i think F8 is easy a bit..thats what worried me..Conclusion.. F8 is FULL OF PROCEDURES!!
hopefully i can fulfil my dream of passing and make low chin ann proud too next P1&P3!!
