Maybe I'm just saying its easier because I've only done 3 accn2 papers and they haven't been too bad :dontknow:

What are you aiming for?


I'm aiming for an A but i'm worried about missing it by a few marks. How about you?

Go to theallpapers.com
my predictions for unit 1 are that there's going to be a double entry question on either the purchases ledger (because there was sales ledger last year) or accruals/prepayments double entry, something about source documents and subsidiary books, correcting errors in a statement or suspense accounts and uses/limitations of a trial balance for a written. there might be a control account as well because they're in most of the papers but they asked for both last year so then again maybe not

Whats the double entry for prepayments?

dr prepayment balance b/d (given in question)
cr accruals b/d (given)
dr bank (given)
cr income statement (balancing figure)
dr accruals balance c/d (given)
cr prepayments balance b/d (given)

I think the paper should be 2 hours lol

I'm feeling more confident for unit 2 :laugh:

I've done all of accounting this year so im not retaking.

Btw for accruals if its a note is it:
Dr Specific expense
Cr Accruals

yeah pretty sure that's the correct note for accruals

i prefer unit 1 over unit 2 but i feel more confident for the unit 2 written than unit 1 this year

You're talking about getting about 60/80 for an "a" (going off last year. Would love it if there was a trial balance

well they say that an easy paper mean lower boundaries and vice versa. i suppose it also depends on the average performance of skill by the students in the year
