A.A.T what topics do you think will come up in this paper?


A difficult paper to predict as there is a lot of content in this unit.

Possible Topics:

1. Final accounts with adjustments (including income in arrears / advance and bad debts recovered, depreciation method here is reducing balance (unit 1 is straight line method)
2. statement of changes in equity (company) question which replaces questions on appropriations account. Also linked to this is "explain the difference between a rights issue and a bonus issue of shares, and record the effect of such transactions on the financial statement."
3. Accounting concepts
4. Ratios
5. ICT
6. Budgeting

Practice
