相信各位小伙伴們都知道,ACCA官方會(huì)在每個(gè)考季后公布本考季的考官報(bào)告,一般是在當(dāng)季考試成績(jī)公布以后。報(bào)告中考官會(huì)根據(jù)不同的科目分別對(duì)考試的總體表現(xiàn)做一個(gè)評(píng)價(jià),哪個(gè)知識(shí)考生掌握的比較好,哪個(gè)知識(shí)點(diǎn)需要考生著重注意等等,一般來說,考生表現(xiàn)比較差的知識(shí)點(diǎn)會(huì)大概率在下次考試中出現(xiàn)。

然而考官發(fā)現(xiàn)他們苦口婆心的給考生做出指引,但是卻見效很小,很多考生參加ACCA考試前甚至沒有看過考官報(bào)告,或者是考過以后對(duì)考官的建議置若罔聞。所以,我在這里把考生在P5考試中需要注意的問題著重指出,希望對(duì)大家通過P5考試有所幫助。

P5這門課是基于F5知識(shí)的,相對(duì)F5和P3來說,并沒有增加太多新的知識(shí)點(diǎn),所以通過它需要對(duì)F5和P3特別是F5的知識(shí)有很好的把握。

在P5考試中不會(huì)讓你描述某個(gè)模型是什么,更多的會(huì)要求你分析模型的優(yōu)點(diǎn)、缺點(diǎn)、相關(guān)假設(shè),更注重你運(yùn)用模型對(duì)案例進(jìn)行分析的能力。

P5考題中常見的問題類型有以下幾種,列出來給大家做參考:

Some basic calculations(though often these are already provided)

Interpretation and evaluation of the results of the calculations

Criticisms of the techniques and measures used

Suggestions for improvement:What should be measured?How tomeasure?How to interpret the measurements?How then to manage performance?

在P5考試中考生未通過的原因主要有兩個(gè),第一個(gè)是Shortcomings in technical abilities,很多考生甚至在考試前都不知道m(xù)arginof safety、WACC、The Return on Capital Employed怎么計(jì)算,所以希望考生在備考P5的時(shí)候注意回顧F5的科目的相關(guān)知識(shí),抓住這些得分點(diǎn)。

考官給大家精挑細(xì)選了三道典型例題,在這里我也給大家列示一下,大家一定要著重分析這些例題,參考答案鏈接會(huì)在文章末尾留給大家。

1.BASIC CONTRIBUTION ANALYSIS(extractedfrom December 2013 Q1)

Task:calculate the margin of safety forLopten Co’s Beeland operation.

2.BASIC COST OF CAPITAL(WACC)CALCULATION(extracted from June 2014 Q1)

Task:As part of an EVA™calculation,calculate the WACC for this company.

3.RETURN ON CAPITAL EMPLOYED CALCULATIONAND EVA(extracted from December 2014 Q1)

Task:Calculate the Return on CapitalEmployed and the EVA™for 2014.

第二個(gè)原因是Shortcomings in not answering the question set,也就是答非所問,不僅在P5中,在其他科目中這種現(xiàn)象也普遍存在,對(duì)于得分接近50但不到50的考生來說,仔細(xì)讀懂題目要求就顯得更加重要了。

在這也給大家列示三道典型例題,大家要好好體會(huì)問題中的要求,看看自己的分析跟答案有哪些出入,然后對(duì)癥下藥:

1.EXAMPLE 1(based on June 2015 Q3(a))

Task:Discuss how success in the customerperspective may impact on the metrics given in the financial perspective.(5marks)

2.EXAMPLE 2(based on June 2014 Q4(a))

Task:Advise the CEO on the implicationsfor performance management of analysing variances into the planning andoperational elements as shown.(6 marks)

3.EXAMPLE 3(extracted from December 2014Q3(b))

Task:Discuss the lifecycle costing issuesassociated with the nuclear power station project.(6 marks)

眾所周知,P5是ACCA考試中最后一門考試之一,很多考生通過P5以后就會(huì)成為ACCA的準(zhǔn)會(huì)員,在這里給各位小伙伴們打打氣,希望大家順利通過ACCA考試?。?!
