    Section A.... :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 108 ✭✭liamtimdusty


    Section A will be the worst of it! Got 20/70 in the pre! but still got 70% overall =)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 69 ✭✭scipsss


    short qs are the worst :(i like questions with theory so will try avoid book keeping as much as possible :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 108 ✭✭liamtimdusty


    Hopefully i do well! If the questions go my way i find it easy! But some things i just cant do. 2 papers in the one day :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,390 ✭✭✭Doublechinlolz

    Yeah i dont know ^^ hah Hopefully we get a rake of those things to fill out ! *Theory* Btw :L


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,724 ✭✭✭mixery


    I'm not looking forward to it as much as before the mocks. If the right questions come up I should get at least a B, but if something irregular comes "I'll be fooooked".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 108 ✭✭liamtimdusty


    IF there was no choice of 6 i would be in the horrors. But i should get a high C atleast :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,248 ✭✭✭Slow Show


    As long as I manage to salvage most of the marks from Section A, I think I'll be OK. I love love LOVE accounts (ridiculous amounts, back when they were all we did in the middle of 2nd Year I used to be so happy going to Business) so there's 30%, plus the budget which is grand, another 10% and there's pretty much always an economics/national budget question which are grand, another 10% and I'll go over Business Documents tonight, 10%! Which is 60% out of 80% sorted (along with Section A) and I only need two more questions, and I like most of the course so *hopefully* everything will go well.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,601 ✭✭✭Desire.


    Meh! I got 93% in the Pre, but that was easy!

    The short questions are annoying. I can do all the accounting question. I just need to look over club accounts.

    Paper One: Budgeting and club accounts are grand. I'll definitely be able to do one more question, hopefully two.

    Paper Two: The two accounting questions and business documents are grand. I don't have a clue what else comes up here though.

    What question/paper do you want them for? :confused:

    Is it worth my time to learn club accounts tonight or should I just leave it? How easy are they? :L

    Really easy if you know your trading profit and loss plus balance sheet questions


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28 juniorcertlol


    quick question, for club accounts, must you put in the cash you own at the start of the year into the receipts and payments account as balance b/d?

    It's worth your time. It always comes up. Simple if you know how to do them.

    Where do dividends paid go on the balance sheet?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 89 ✭✭flump_master


    Nowhere on the balance sheet, they go in the appropraition account


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,248 ✭✭✭Slow Show


    Oh...so Dividends Paid would appear on the trial balance, not the adjustments then? Seeing as it only goes in once.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 89 ✭✭flump_master


    Yep exactly, just watch out for dividends declared- theyre the tricky little liabilities :)

    Correct. Dividend declared however will go in the appropriation account, and the balance sheet as a Current Liability.

    To calculate it, you multiply the issued share capital by whatever percent you're given in the question.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 89 ✭✭flump_master


    Correct. Dividend declared however will go in the appropriation account, and the balance sheet as a Current Asset.

    No theyd be a current liability- they still have to be paid to shareholders and hence are a liability


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3 daveq101


    What do they mean by headings of a business plan and what are they?

    Also what's the most likely short questions to come up? :confused:

    Thanks and Good Luck to Everyone :)
