What parts of the module are you having issues with, I can't help you with the excel project. That was a major headache for me and didn't come in at all helpful on co-op.

I wouldn't think its too late to do well at all. Check the past exam papers on public folders. There seems to be very little deviation between years. I know when I did AC4001, the exam was almost identical to the previous year. There's a good book in the library 'Accounting for non-accounting students'. I came across it the other day. Ironically titled book for a Accounting & Finance Major :cool:

Ya John Hennegan said that alright, the exam papers are really handy

Heya Nuts, Im a first year business aswell, don't worry, you are not alone, Im currently going absolutely mental while trying to get the Case Study finished on Excel.

Seriously I am going to BURN the remains of it when Im done!:D
The best way to make some sense of it is to remember your Dr.s and Cr.s, and where everything goes in the Final Accounts.

Acc. is probably the hardest module, for most people anyway, (especially me, and I did it for 2 years, so I've no excuse!!)

The best thing to do is not to panic.

Remember, you'll be rid of it in 3 weeks time!!!

And budgets are much easier, so next semester should be ok.

Best of luck in the exam!!!

Try doing 1st year business and german, ye business students have it so easy with the workload, im doing your entire course plus german on top of it (which is so much work).

I somehow managed to get the excel part of my case study finished today thank god so only a tiny bit let to write into the book (what a relief)

Good to hear that budgets are much easier than what we are doing this semester. Honestly I can never follow those lectures, would be so screwed without those tutorials.

Ya I heard it was tough with a language.

I just about finished with the Excel part, although...
Where did ye put the Bank Rec. statement just after the Nominal Ledgers?
It's not in the "written section" of the book, so do I put it in somewhere else in the excel, or do I hand in that page aswell?

Am I meant to hand in the book aswell?

As far as im aware you only do that part if your doing the case study in the book, just leave it out.

But ill ask a mate tomorrow and get back to ya just in case.

Asking for advice is all well and good and is to be encouraged, but asking for flat out answers is a bit of a no no! Especially on a public forum!

Of course, its years since I did accounting so you may just be asking for the final balance or something

For the Preilminary Trial Balance, yes.
But not for the Final Balances.

I am currently really stuck of the Final TB.

My Adjustment totals worked out, as far as I know.

Does anybody have a clue how to do the Stock bit??!
