You make it look soooo simple..Thank you
You’re welcome 😊
I have failed PM once and I was struggling in Section B and didn't score good. What tips would you like to give me to kop up with this? and Does reading text book is important or we can learn from just study hub for PM?
What score did you get? If in the 40s, then just do past exam questions and look things up when you get the answers wrong.
🥲🥲😊😊
What is the charge of P/L? Profit and Loss? May I ask?
Yes, P/L stands for profit and loss.
Thank you for your sharing and valuable guidance 💯💯
You are welcome!
Thanks for the video this is great. Do you have any examples where you also include a WACC %? Some of the questions I have looked at for my exam also include this. I'm just a bit unclear where I should use it when doing a MMH?
Cost of capital doesn't come up when doing a money market hedge. You only need borrow/deposit interest rates and spot rate. Cost of capital is used when we need the required return of the capital providers of the company.
Hi. For the ordinary shares, cost of capital calculation you ended it by doing the market return 0.11 less the risk free 0.04. But on another video of yours for the question Corfe, you didn't take off the risk free rate at the end of that calculation. Which is correct or why was it done on this question and not the other? Thanks
For WACC, sometimes they give you (a) "market return" and (b) "Risk Free." You subtract B from A to get (c) 'risk premium'. However, sometimes they just give you C, so you don't need to do the previous step.
Hello Steve Willis, great lecture. I have a question. In calculating the finance cost, wouldn't the compare enjoy any tax deductible interest?
Good question! Yes, tax is net of interest.
Thanks so much Steve! Something very similar came up today and I am grateful to have solved this with you this morning. Fingers crossed for July!
Fantastic! Glad it helped.
hearing ur voice is a relief specially when u say ACCA......students i opened this to hear while starting my course so ican sit SEP exam 😄 and one more thing i miss ur guitar tone 🤟✌
Thank you! Good luck!
really helpful , came out exactly the same type of questionduring my paper today, thank you sir🥰🥰
Excellent-great to hear
Hey Steve, we have our FM exams day after tomorrow if possible can you please upload a video covering Cost of equity and Debt question from Section A and B covering a few important calculation questions like using CAPM and DVM, I will be really grateful if you do so.
Not sure if I'll have time, but will try!
Last minute watch this valuable short video Thanks for sharing 💯💯💯💯
My pleasure 😊Good luck today!
Hi Steve, your lecturer is just brilliant. Thank you.
You are very welcome! Good luck Friday.
For Closing Trade Receivables in part Aiii - why do we take away inflows from November and December instead of adding them in as a part of closing balance
Inflows of customer cash are a reduction of receivables.
sir, can we put question 2& 3 and do both workings together in exam
Be very clear to the marker what you are doing. Label everything, and show everything you do as a step-by-step approach. If you do this, you can link parts of the question together no problem.
I PRAY THIS QUESTION COMES UP
Fingers crossed
Steve willis is like the bruce willis of acca absolute madman
Thanks for the compliment!
Thank you so much sir, found your channel yesterday i have exam tomorrow and seriously i must your videos are very very helpful. i will recommend you channel to all my friends pursuing ACCA for sure :)
Thank you! Good luck tomorrow :)
Are you the voice of some of the topic explainer videos on ACCA’s Student Study Resources YT page? 😅
Why yes I am :D
🥲🥹
I wish i had seen your lecture rather then the things ny tutor just explained without applying in situations before exam nnow tomorrow is my exam
Hi Sir, I found your video is very helpful to my APM Study Do you offer and provide any online APM course so far? Would you mind share with me, I keen to join it and get your support? Thanks.
Yes, will be adding that soon--stay tuned here :)
That's great, how do I know when it is available? I am eager to sharpen my technique asap😂
Sorry steve for disturbing you, but as you know it’s on Wednesday 😅 and I have barley taken a time off from your favorite accounting firm Isn’t the same alike the quantity and mix variance but for the contribution? I mean the market and the share variance
They are very similar! But not the same. Sales Quantity Variance goes to the original budget, the direct mats Mix and Yield use flexed and actual results
I found Q6 misleading. The question tells you the selling prices of X & Y not its profit. So in the solutions it seems as though you are comparing the Revenue of X with the Profit of Z!
the published answers can be confusing sometimes for sure! the issue is they are describing everything in words without a whiteboard to show what is happening.
But the quantity contribution variance looks like the AS SS usage variance just changing the SP to cont. .. am i right ? I have used the same approach the AQ Smix SP and it worked 26700 *15840/26400 * 12
please give me a time stamp to where you are referring
Sales price variance is the same also alike the AA AS SS approach.. would you please clarify if we can use these letters in the sales variances also ?
@@SteveWillisACCA @23.34 when we are trying to get the revised one, I have used the approach I have learnt from you when it comes to the yield and the mix and it worked the same here also the price sales variance. I just wanna stick to an approach
Hi Sir, I do not get the part why we need 2000 rooms to break even. How to get the break even 2000 figure?
Hi, Sir The question download link is not the same question with june 2012, may you check?
Sorry about that! Link fixed!
@@SteveWillisACCA Thanks for your fast action, really appreciate it. Thanks Sir.
Hii steve why dont you take the finance cost associated with the holding cost (opportunity cost)??
Hi there, you are correct. If there is no cash, then the inventory is funded from the short-term finance. Could be payables or overdraft. For the exam if they state that finance costs are part of holding costs, then include it 100%. If they don't mention that, the model answer usually excludes that--either way it is only going be 1/2 of a mark or so, so do what seems correct based on the past papers you've tried and keep moving! Good luck tomorrow.
damn i get it
Hey Steve, on the final home straight before the exam now... so do you recommend starting with A then C and B last? any particular reason for this strategy and is it proven to be most effective?
Yes, I think this is the best way to do it--get warmed up in A, focus on finding 10 that you can do, see the whole syllabus. Now you are warmed up, do C, working in blank spreadsheets, word processors. Now time is winding down, go to B, aim for 3 out of 5 for each mini scenario, always do the theory ones first--run out of time on the tricky ones. You don't want to be running short of time in section C, better B if you are pressed for time.
Thanks for sharing valuable knowledge 💯💯💯💯
My pleasure
Sir, Can we use Excel Sheet During Performance Measurement real exam?
you can only use the response option they give you--usually the word processor unfortunately.
Thanks
Welcome
wow its really useful ❣
Glad you think so!
Hello steve! Would you please solve some tricky questions from june 2024 mock for FM, thank you!
FM exam will be pretty easy ig
Yes, soon
This channel is the home of Management accounting
Hi Steve. Thank you for the video. Could you consider running through the June 2024 mock ACCA released recently please? There are some really tricky questions on there that the mark scheme doesn't explain that well
Yes
Hello Steve please make videos for AFM next . cover all parts of the syllabus , exam approach , tips and tricks. i planned to do AFM in September. Love and Respect from India.
Hi there! I'm sorry, I don't cover that paper. Good luck on your exam next week! Love and respect back :D
@@SteveWillisACCA Sad to hear that :) If possible try to many some videos which will useful for exam like AFM spreadsheet workings.
Hello Steve my practice platform is not working. 😢 Like from 15 days . The spreadsheet is not working. What should I do
It works for me--try a different browser, clear you browser cash, try a different internet connection. See if this helps.
Hey, I need your help can not open the webiste in my country. Its not related to this question. But in the latest past paper medical temp co the question states the market size is 8 but in the kit it says 4 and in q2 its 4.2 how?????
maybe they changed the numbers in your book. Send a picture of the workings in question
@@SteveWillisACCA thanks for replying I got it the national market size was in $ and in order to apply your formula market now/market then it should be in units so we divide it by selling price per week. Wish me luck Steve you have been a blessing in this session for me! Also if you send you watsapp for future courses that would be great since I am unable to access your help website
Thanks a lot.
Glad to help
Dude saving life with this video's was stuck in Kappa yield
Very happy to help -- good luck next week!
Hi Steve, great video. Just wanted to confirm that dont we add Increase in provisions and deduct decrease in provisions from Operating Profit rather than the capital employed as this is what ACCA's technical article says; please elaborate. Moreover, shouldn't the tax be 9.5 rather than 9?
Hi there, tax charge is 9.5--tax paid is 9.0. Any non-cash expense gets reducted from operating profit. With capital employed, the examiner wants you to use OPENING capital employed, so the charges in the current year don't affect the opening capital employed.
My greatest worry has been finally addressed. Thanks Steve☺
Happy to help
Please do a detailed section c on the transfer pricing
Thank you soo much Steve. Im really great for finding you on YT. I've passed ma from your proforma video that you made for ma.Now, Iam 110% sure I will pass my FM and PM in this june attempt IN SHA ALLAH
