Will we be expected to learn the format of the BS and the P&L account?<BR><BR>Or will it be laid out in the exam like it was in the simulation?

    Even though it will probably be laid out for you, there's nothing like knowing it inside out. If I were you, I'd learn the format for all three,ie, Trial Balance, Trading & P & L a/c and B/S. You should also try to learn how the titles of all three are worded, as you get a mark for that.

    The things that always crop up each year:<BR><BR>1. trial balance<BR>2. extended trial balance - including balancing out on pl and bs<BR>3. year end adjustment journals<BR>4. profit and loss statement or balance sheet<BR>5. partnerships,capital accounts, current, goodwill, retirement of partner or admittance but never both<BR><BR>Worth knowing as well to put a heading on top of the profit and loss or balance sheet and date it, you will get marks for presentation

    oh that one. I put IRR but only in the sense to find the optimum borrowing of capital rate. I didnt think that it was a form of investment apprasal but just another way of discounting cash.<BR><BR>2 other commercial reason:<BR><BR>1. cash flows out of the 3 year period<BR>2. residue value of the machine<BR><BR>or 3 you could of had that variable costs to rise and fall within the market.

    did you do the npv question? was you meant to write the capital amount for different years into the box?.

    from what i can remember it gave you all the info in separate boxes then you had to collate the info into one table. Capital received was the net cash flow for each year and there was a box for each year
