i have done the exam and failed.
I had one questions that was something like that
Y=135+0.78x and said that y was sales volume in thousands and X is the period of quarters.and the based period was q1 2014 and this calculation for 2016
Was like
Q1 13
Q2 14
Q3 15
I don’t remember the exact numbers but was quarterly seasonal variation
Q1 -2000
Q2 +3000
Q3 +4500

I needed to find the trends and the seasonally adjusted sales unit.

I calculate (what was the value on the exam) 135+ 0.78 x 13= 145.14
135+0.78 x 14= 145.92
135 +0.78x15= 146.70
But those are not on thousands and I didn’t understand how to put the sale adjusted volume .
Can anyone explain?

Lack of practise questions?

Hi, I've done all my core modules and have started studying towards the synoptic, but there doesn't seem to be much in the way of practise questions compared to the other modules. I am studying with Kaplan and with the others there's been a question bank, but not with synoptic. I feel I probably only passed the other modules due to the sheer quantity of revision I did, so I'm worrying for this exam already! I understand that literally anything can come up and a lot of it is almost common sense in how a business should be managed, but I still like to read model answers to get ideas where I may have missed out an area. Can anyone suggest any other (free!) materials online? Thanks, Bex

Hi guys All my questions relate to this book : https://www.amazon.co.uk/Advanced-Diploma-Accounting-Synoptic-Assessment/dp/1509712704/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=aat+level+3+synoptic+assessment&qid=1580327812&sr=8-6 There are three practice assessments at the end of this book . Tasks 5 and 6 in each of these assessments refer to spreadsheets. When you go to bpp website you can download files for task 6 for each assessment. Unfortunately I couldn't find spreadsheets that refer to task 5 in all three practice assessments. In practice assessment 1 on page 288 (there is task 5 described there ) the book says that you need to download worksheets ' Grades' and ' Results' - couldn't find this file when I went to bpp.com/spreadsheets In practice assessment 2 on page 318 (there is task 5 described there) the book says that you need to download file called ' Regional Sales Quarter' and this file should include four worksheets-North, South, Central, Pricelist-couldn't find this file when I went to bpp.com/spreadsheets In practice assessment 3 on page 352 (there is task 5 described there) the book says that you need to download spreadsheet called ' Job costing' and this spreadsheet should include five worksheets-Costing, Materials, Labour , Overheads, Decisions-couldn't find this file when I went to bpp.com/spreadsheets Does anybody have those files or does anybody know where I can download them ? Please, help me in this matter. Regards. Rafal

What are the advantages of registering an LLC in Delaware?

Delaware is situated on the east of the United States of America near Baltimore and Washington D.C. The geographical position signifies a real advantage in terms of export markets due to its close location to the sea and main highways. Company formation in Delaware is easy and the owner does not have to travel to the US. For the company formation, only a certified ID or passport copy and a power bill are needed. Depending on the choice of bank and also a short CV or bank reference.

Struggling with level 4

$

Like many people, I breezed through level 2 & 3, passing all exams first time without too much trouble. I've now been studying level 4 for over a year and have still only managed to pass 3 exams (Budgeting, Financial Statements and Credit Management). I am still waiting on results for my last go at the Synoptic, but have not yet competent results for Indirect Tax and Decision and Control. I have taken resit after resit, and just keep missing the mark by a few percent. My college have now said that my time as a student with them has ended, and if i wish to resit again, I need to go and find another training provider to sit with. I understand that giving up now would be a waste of this year, and a waste of all of the money that I have put in to the course up until now, however, I have lost motivation and well, quite frankly, hope. I was just curious to know if anyone else is, or has been in a similar position, and what they did to push themselves to the end. I have used all revision materials available to me, and have felt confident going in, and coming out of the exam. The tax results i received today, i was confident about getting, as i felt that I had done everything to the best of my ability, but again, I missed the mark. I'm just extremely fed up, as I was confident that I would be qualified by the end of 2017, but the end doesn't seem even close yet.

Is there any point?

I want to start AAT but every job for AAT qualified people requires at least a year of experience and by all accounts it's nigh on impossible to get your foot in the door. How do you people keep motivated knowing how unlikely it is to be any use?

AAT LEVEL 4 - INSPIRATION

Good afternoon all, I'm sitting here on the day of my final (hopefully) Level 4 AAT exam, reading about people's journeys, so thought I would share mine for anybody who is struggling and thinking of giving up... I began my level 4 AAT journey in 2016.. (yep nearly over 3 years ago) The new AQ2016 syllabus had just been released, and our class were guinea pigs for the new format.. We experienced ALL of the teething problems, the course at the time was 1 year long. I believe L4 has now been extended to 1.5 Years in some colleges. I work full time all day in management accounts, and I studied in the evenings at college.. but the tuition soon ran out at college, so I had to home study using books and the internet to complete the rest of the exams Here's the dates and order of my exam sittings/results: 19/01/17 MABU 71% take it and run! 23/03/17 FSCL 44% 04/05/17 MDCL 47% ( see note below*) 30/06/17 PDSY 67% -don't ask how.. fluke 13/07/17 CTRM 57% 20/07/19 FSLC 56% 10/08/17 MDCL 59% 31/08/17 Auditing 76% 1st time- Yes! 28/09/17 FSLC 64% 05/10/17 CTRM 57% 07/12/17 FSLC 82% - Cried with happiness.. 21/12/17 CTRM 61% 04/01/18 MDCL 65% 18/01/18 PDSY 55% * TOOK A YEAR OUT * 27/06/19 CREDIT 80% - 1st time and taught myself from the book ( couldn't believe it) 01/08/19 MDCL 77% - FINALLY so chuffed and starting to believe in myself again 21/11/19 PDSY ?? Nervous, but ready as i'll ever be! You can see I've been quite determined to pass and I guess what i'm trying to say is don't give up now!! If i can do it then so can you *Decision & Control MDCL- 4 attempts! 47%, 59%, 65%, 77% I just couldn't get this subject, I sat it 3 times and took a year out, during my year out the exam was simplified- they took out two questions whilst the time limit remained the same... I began revising again alone and passed it! I think I had a negative mindset of ' i can't do it' or ' i hate it' or 'why am i doing this'. But I took a break, came back to it, took my time and passed!! Exam Tips: Do the practice assessments over and over, use the AAT learning online, buy yourself additional textbooks, if you don't practice you won't pass. I bought some index cards and use them to make quick notes to look over when the textbook seems too heavy and wordy. I use highlighters and coloured pens to try and train my brain to remember formulas and colours, i come up with Rhymes for ratios.. find something that works but just DONT give up! B xxxx
