Are the examples in the AAFRP toolkit much harder than the actual exam? I haven't got a single one correct yet

I've only had two case study days, the first was with Michael Farrell who i thought was excellent. We worked in twos.

The second was with a certain lecturer from Cork, and the less said about her the better...

Yes, they are. Try the sample/past papers and you'll do better.

Glad I'm not the only one! The toolkit seems to pick really technical points that would be easily overlooked!!

CGS weekend is excellent. Recommend for anyone reading back over this in a years time. Intense but I feel better now having done it.

Apparently the institute put up sample papers on the student portal not so long ago and then took them down. CGS also referred to working on the sample papers I am wondering does anyone have copies of these?

I have the sample papers. I will bring them into work this week and see if I can scan them and then upload them.

I'm not the greatest with technology so it might be a bot of trial and error! Be patient with me:D

Anyone know why in Q1.4 of the toolkit you deduct the 15m of overhaul costs when calculating depreciation. The cost of 200m doesn't include this so I thought it would be 200m minus the 25m residual value divided by 10 years.

Its annoying me that basic stuff like this isn't working.

Hi Is your books are still available? or you just threw them in the bin already. Give me a call (mod snip), if you didn't.

Its in IAS 16, have to seperate them into different components and the €3m per aircraft apparently is a professional judgement of that part, as this is what it's costs to overhaul it and it has a shorter useful life.

I did FAE 2013- I have all of the core books and the audit elective books. If anybody wants them, they're yours for free. But I would prefer if whoever takes them takes all of them! thanks!

Unfortunately block release will come out of our study leave

ASOT2012

Just a heads up guys I think there may be a few errors/typos in the toolkit.

For Q3.16 part 2, the journal entries in the question should be 160k instead of 7.5k, and the journal posted are the wrong way around!

If anybody else comes across anymore please post them up!
