Hi there<BR><BR>What did you previously post on here regarding what you think will come up in PEV and PCR. My lecturer has given the hot-tip for PEV will be testing backward variances and PCR hot-tip is Investment appraisal to be examined in 1.2 of PCR. How do you get these presumptions? do AAT give you hints etc?<BR><BR>Is it possible for me to leave any sections of a topic out for revision or best to be on safe side and learn all topic for each subject. <BR><BR>Hope you get back<BR><BR>Regards<BR><BR>Gonner1980

    Investment Appraisal in PCR<BR>I'm surprised and must admit I have not looked at this at all with my class at Chichester or my Revision Days<BR><BR>I'd be surprised to see it, but I do not have any special knowledge and <i>I most certainly have not seen either the PEV or the PCR exam papers</i><BR><BR>Your lecturer may well be much better informed than me

    FTC tutors can sometimes be very astute as far as CIMA and ACCA exams are concerned. <BR>Investment Appraisal in PCR is a bit of a surprise to me. More of a surprise is ARR. I don't think the AAT standards include this, even in ECR.<BR><BR>The examiners can expect Technician candidates to know the Intermediate standards. <BR>I think this will be more obvious from 2006 onwards, but I may well be surprised next week.<BR><BR>My advise is to go back to your ECR notes and remind yourself what payback and NPV techniques show.<BR>Even do a couple of section 2 questions from ECR papers. But then leave it alone. The key areas of knowledge are preparing budgets for planning, flexing budgets for control, forecasting and the motivational effects budgets can have on managers.<BR>
