Hi
I've been going through the BPP Revision Book, which I'm finding pretty helpful so far.
I was just wondering if anyone new what calculations are likely to come up for workings before the consolidated balance sheet can be prepared. In all the practice exams in this book they appear to be, amount of share holding, goodwill, retained earnings and minority share. Do you think these will be the typical workings to do in an exam.
I'm just a bit concerned as sometimes the BPP books are not always accurate and as this is the first exam under international standards there is nothing to go off from previous exams.
Thanks

Re:DFS Exam
I am not sure about the new DFS exam but under the old one the workings you mentioned were in previous exams. I would have a look at the syllabus for DFS, it will say there if you are expected to have knowledge and be able to calculate them there. If it is in the syllabus then there is a possibility it could come up in the exam.
Hope this helps

Hi there
We have tried the specimen paper for unit 11 and have found this very helpful. Maybe you should give it a try. There are all the pro formas to help you too.
