可以利用本题来做简答题92、Rainbow公司最近任命Margaret Joyce 为负责财务的副总裁,要求她设计一套新的预算编制制度。
Joyce 做了改变,通过把公司的年度预算除以十二,这样就成了一种按月编制预算的制度。

这份月度报告自上而下执行,且会引起一些行为问题。
A、最高管理当局对预算流程的态度B、包括了一些不可控的成本,比如折旧D、没有考虑一些因素,比如说季节性试题解析:在权威式预算编制过程中将会发生问题。
那些原因包括最高管理当局对预算流程的态度将导致预算与实际数有很大的不同;包括了一些不可控的成本,比如折旧;没有考虑一些因素,比如说季节性。
其他的原因还可能包括制定预算决策的人没有制定有效预算的知识。

$88,000是直线的斜率,并显示,如果目前的趋势继续下去,Delgado每个月的销售将增加$88,000。
时间序列分析:四种要素,趋势、周期、季节、无规则背优点:有助于分析趋势和各种规律,帮助决策缺点:过去模式是否能继续;无法预测无规则事件;只使用一个变因(时间)来预测学习曲线优点:帮助制定价格和衡量绩效缺点:学习曲线规律并非保持不变,不能分析学习以外的因素,学习率难以确定决策理论期望值,优:在不确定的情况下给出了预测;缺:未考虑风险态度敏感性,优:揭示不同变量对预测结果的影响缺:每次只能测试一个变量第三节预算方法项目预算2个上司作业预算固定成本同一个成本池;不同层次变动成本不同的成本池团队合作、同步作业和客户满意预算更准确,有利于预算审核,防止预算松弛。

The framework is often used to understand the influence that each stakeholder has over an organization’s objectives and strategy.b. It estimates which stakeholders have the most influence by evaluating each stakeholder’s individual power and interest to the organization’s affairs. The stakeholders with the highest combination of power and interest are likely to be those with the most actual influence over objectives.c. It describes the political context within which an individual strategy would be pursued by classifying stakeholders in two dimensions:(a)The power they hold(b)The extent to which they are likely to show interest in supporting or opposing a particular strategy2012ACCA《P1专业会计师》基础课程讲义(4)<2> The matrix indicates the type of relationship which organizations typically might establish with stakeholder groups in the different quadrantsa. Segment A: minimum effort (such as small investors)b. Segment B: keep informed, they have limited ability to influence strategy but they can influence more powerful stakeholders by lobbying (such as community representatives)c.

Segment D: key player, they participate in decision making and strategy must be accepted by them (such as major customer)<3> Two steps in completing the matrix:a. Place the stakeholder in the appropriate quadrant of the matrixb. Assess their a ttitude with ‘+’ or ‘-’<4> Each of these group has three basic choices:a. Loyalty. They can do as they are told.b. Exit. E.g. by selling their shares, or get a new jobc. Voice. They can stay and change the system. Those who choose voice are those who can influence the organization<5> Scholes (1998)suggests the following strategies to deal with each quadrant:a. Segment A – Direction(a)Lack of interest and power(b)Open to influence(c)Normally accept what they are told and follow instructionsb. Segment B – Education / Communication(a)For supportive stakeholders: may lobby others to support the strategy(b)For dissenters: stop them joining forces with more powerful dissenters in C or Dc. Segment C – Intervention / Persuasion(a)Keep the occupants satisfied to avoid them gain interests and shifting into D (b)Reassuring them of the likely outcomes of the strategy well in advanced. Segment D – Participation(a)Major drivers of change or major opponents(b)Firstly education / communication , then discuss the implementation issues3.7 Compare stakeholder theory with agency theory and company law<1> Agency theory: Agent (manager)and principal (shareholders);Make as much money as possible, in the interest of the owners.<2> Company law: managers have fiduciary and legal obligations to maximize shareholder wealth.<3> Stakeholder theory: Managers as agents to all other stakeholders, try to reconcile their interests; emphasis on the ethical and social responsibility.4 Major issues in corporate governance<1> Duty of directors: fiduciary duty to act in the best interests of the company, use their power properly, avoid conflict of interest and exercise a duty of care<2> Composition and balance of the board: balance in member (director and NEDs),skills and talents (specialist),level and age (help succession planning)<3> Reliability of financial reporting and external auditors: together with external auditors, greater regulation of practices led to greater transparency and reduces the risk of investors<4> Directors’ remuneration and rewards: corporate governance codes avoid directors being paid excessive salaries and bonuses<5> Responsibility of the board for risk management and internal control system: set up adequate system for measurement and reporting of risk<6> Right and responsibility of shareholder: shareholders should have the right to receive all material information which may affect the value of their investment and to vote on measures affecting the organization’s governance<7> Corporate social responsibility and business ethics: mutual benefit relationship between company and shareholder create sustained business success and steadylong-term growth in corporate value<8> Public and non-governmental corporate governance: governance andnon-governance bodies should also apply corporate governance (integrity, supervise, ensure appropriate control and risk management and reporting system)更多ACCA资讯请关注高顿ACCA官网:。
acca p1总结 acca p1知识点总结 acca p1经验
acca p1总结acca p1知识点总结acca p1经验acca从p阶段开始就要比f阶段的难度提高了一个档次,acca p1是acca 考试p阶段中非常重要的一门课程。
下面让我们来学习下东亚国际金牌讲师马莉芳老师为大家分享acca p1总结、acca p1知识点总结、acca p1经验。
P1概述,东亚国际金牌讲师:Lily Ma(马莉芳)。
P1是ACCA历史上存在时间最短的一门课,仅有10年,自2007年出现,2018年9月就要消失。
P1和P3合并,取而代之的是一门新科目的诞生:Strategic Business LeaderP1课程主要由4部分组成:1、Corporate Governance公司治理2、Internal Control内部控制3、Risk Management公司风险管理4、Ehtics伦理道德考试形式:3道题1、50分长案例题,必做题。
一页半A4纸,四个部分里面包含2-3个部分2、25分题*3,三选二。
这部分由3道25分的问题组成,学员可以从中选择两道最有把握的来答。
半页A4纸,2-3个问题,涉及四个部分里面1-2个部分。
P1不能通过的原因:1、语言问题由于英语不好,阅读速度太慢,导致题目看不完,还有写作能力不达标也是写不完的。
2、答题技巧问题不能光答点,后面没有解释,保证答得每一点都要结合到案例中去,可以简略的描述案例中的事实再摆出知识点或者观点。
这也是很多同学过不了的一个主要原因。
3、时间问题时间只有3小时15分钟,答三道题,时间很紧,很多同学会答不完,所以平时就应该掐着时间去练习,控制好时间,做题对于P1是至关重要的。
P1的学习方法:1、知识点的掌握,内容知识点要以理解为主2、活学活用3、在理解基础上背些知识点4、锻炼英文阅读和写作5、多阅读相关参考书6、必须做过去考题做过去考题的步骤:1、带着问题看案例2、自己先思考怎么答,把你的答案点列出来!-不要直接看答案。

注会会计三色笔记
注会会计三色笔记一、会计基础概念部分(蓝色笔记:重点概念)1. 会计基本假设。
- 会计主体:明确会计核算的空间范围,例如企业独立核算自身的经济业务,与企业所有者的个人事务区分开来。
- 持续经营:假定企业在可预见的未来会持续经营下去,而不是即将面临破产清算,这一假设是很多会计处理方法的基础,如固定资产折旧按使用年限计提。
- 会计分期:将企业持续经营的活动划分为等距的会计期间,通常有年度、半年度、季度和月度,以便定期编制财务报表。
- 货币计量:规定会计核算以货币作为主要的计量单位,并且假定货币的币值是基本稳定的。
2. 会计信息质量要求(红色笔记:重点中的重点,常考点)- 可靠性:企业应当以实际发生的交易或者事项为依据进行会计确认、计量和报告,如实反映符合确认和计量要求的各项会计要素及其他相关信息,保证会计信息真实可靠、内容完整。
- 相关性:企业提供的会计信息应当与财务报告使用者的经济决策需要相关,有助于使用者对企业过去、现在或者未来的情况作出评价或者预测。
- 可理解性:企业提供的会计信息应当清晰明了,便于财务报告使用者理解和使用。
- 可比性。
- 纵向可比:同一企业不同时期可比,要求企业采用的会计政策在前后各期保持一致,不得随意变更。
- 横向可比:不同企业相同会计期间可比,即不同企业对于相同或者相似的交易或者事项,应当采用规定的会计政策,确保会计信息口径一致、相互可比。
- 实质重于形式:企业应当按照交易或者事项的经济实质进行会计确认、计量和报告,不应仅以交易或者事项的法律形式为依据。
例如,融资租赁的固定资产,虽然从法律形式上看,租赁期间所有权未转移,但从经济实质上看,承租人能够控制该项资产的使用并从中受益,所以在会计上视为承租人的固定资产进行核算。
- 重要性:企业提供的会计信息应当反映与企业财务状况、经营成果和现金流量有关的所有重要交易或者事项。
重要性的判断取决于项目的性质和金额大小两个方面。
- 谨慎性:企业对交易或者事项进行会计确认、计量和报告应当保持应有的谨慎,不应高估资产或者收益、低估负债或者费用。
AIA国际会计师P13财务会计3:考试技巧与策略
AIA国际会计师公会P13财务会计3:考试技巧与策略1、考试策略:许多考官相信,在专业会计机构诸如美国会计师协会中的考试成功,因为要处理很多专业的知识,要尽可能多的利用到优秀的考试策略。
这一篇旨在通过关注考试策略,特别是欠佳的考试策略给考试者一些建议,欠佳的策略可以显露于每一场考试中和体现在考试者给的一些欠佳的答案中。
这第一篇将会关注叙事方面的试题。
后面一篇将会关注计算。
这篇文章是写关于财务会计3,但许多所讨论的问题是通用的,适用于所有阶段。
很多问题都不是新问题,事实上,考生通常说的就是这些问题,在P13,在考试建议里发表了以下每个考试。
然后,事实上,一些考生完全无视建议。
各个阶段的考生应该经常看些由AIA提供的基于考生报告的考试建议——越早在考生复习过程看越好。
考试建议发表在文档库的网站所有考生都能访问。
许多考卷问题的答案混合了计算和叙述。
叙述的回答似乎对考生来说最困难的,所以考试策略概要了如何回答这种类型的问题,给出了历年回答这类问题的2种示范2、控制答题时间考试题型有论述题,讨论题,方案建议题,这些题型在每个科目中所占比率各不相同。
考生应该确保知道每个科目论述题所占分数的比率是多少。
比如,P13有大约30%的分数出自论述题。
如果忽略了这点而把时间只集中用在计算题上,实际只能完成70分的题目,及格分是50分,这么做相当于把及格分拉高到71.4,想要通过考试困难大大增加。
3、哪里开始开始写叙述答案的时候你必须做些练习。
洋洋洒洒的长篇大论通常是无关非相关的答案所以得分也少,当然通不过。
重点是不管回答哪一门的问题,计算一下需要花多久在回答上。
非常简单,有效时间是180分钟,100分有效,每一分有效的回答因此不能超过18秒,所以,如果你回答一道5分的题目,你不能超过9分钟回答它。
众所周知一些小分很容易得反之最后的也是最难的,所以你只有15分钟可能还有一道题没完成,更明智的选择是回答另一个问题,捡些容易的得分,比花时间努力完成另一个问题得到很难得到的分要好。
