FRA/ECR Exams next week! Any possible questions??

NickyW

Hi there
Am sitting FRA and ECR exams next week. As I am studying through distance learning and don't have much contact with a tutor, was wondering if anyone has got any "inkling" of what might come up. Are there any subjects which haven't been tested for a while which tutors are saying you should look at? If so would appreciate if if you could reply to this thread!!

Been told in FRA every year Accurals pre payment come up if that helps

Incomplete records and ETB

I think one section is on incomplete records and trial balance and the other section is on partnerships, ETB and can include P+L and BS..Thats just what ive picked up from doing the past papers.. Hope that helps...:001_smile:

To be honest i wouldnt try to second guess all i would do is try revise all then there wouldnt be any hidden surprises

I sat FRA last year, Mark ups and Margins didn't come up at all so i think it would be a good idea to make sure you are up to speed with these!

Rosemary Evans - Chief Assessor for FRA has had two articles published in the AAT Accounting Technician magazines. My tutor has suggested it is a good idea to read and understand these.

They are:

May 2008 - page 25 - Control Accounts (Purchase and Sales ledger)

March 2008 - page 29 - Accounting Standards
SSAP 5 - Accounting for VAT
SSAP 9 - Stocks and long term contracts
FRS 15 - Accounting for tangible fixed assets
FRS 18 - Accounting policies

It maybe helpful - but then again it may be a red herring!!!

Never mind we either will or won't pass on Wednesday - whatever the outcome I know we will all have tried our best. I know that as soon as I open the paper I will instantaneously forget everything (especially which side things go!!!)

Good luck everybody.
