Helping you with your revision
BPP Learning Media – ACCA Approved Content Provider
As an ACCA Approved Content Provider, BPP Learning Media gives you the opportunity to use revision materials
reviewed by the ACCA examination team . By incorporating the ACCA examination team’s comments and
suggestions regarding the depth and breadth of syllabus coverage, the BPP Learning Media Practice & Revision Kit
provides excellent, ACCA-approved support for your revision.
Tackling revision and the exam

Using feedback obtained from the ACCA examination team review:
 We look at the dos and don’ts of revising for, and taking, ACCA exams
 We focus on Paper F4; we discuss revising the syllabus, what to do (and what not to do) in the exam, how to
approach different types of question and ways of obtaining easy marks
Selecting questions
We provide signposts to help you plan your revision.
 A full question index
Making the most of question practice

At BPP Learning Media we realise that you need more than just questions and model answers to get the most from
your question practice.
 Our top tips included for certain questions provide essential advice on tackling questions, presenting
answers and the key points that answers need to include.
 In a bank at the end of this Kit we include the official ACCA answers to the December 2014 exam. Used in
conjunction with our answers they provide an indication of all possible points that could be made, issues
that could be covered and approaches to adopt.
Attempting mock exams

There are three mock exams that provide practice at coping with the pressures of the exam day. We strongly
recommend that you attempt them under exam conditions. Mock exams 1 and 2 reflect the question styles and
syllabus coverage of the exam; Mock exam 3 is the December 2014 exam paper.
Revising F4
Topics to revise
All questions are compulsory so you must revise the whole syllabus. Since the exam includes 45 multiple choice
questions in Section A, you should expect questions to cover a large part of the syllabus. Selective revision will
limit the number of questions you can answer and hence reduce your chances of passing. It is better to go into the
exam knowing a reasonable amount about most of the syllabus rather than concentrating on a few topics to the
exclusion of the rest.
vi Helping you with your revision

Question practice
Practising as many exam-style questions as possible will be the key to passing this exam. You must do questions
under timed conditions.
Avoid looking at the answers until you have finished a question bank. Your biggest problem with the MTQ questions
may be knowing how to start, and this needs practice.
Also ensure that you attempt all three mock exams under exam conditions.
Helping you with your revision vii

Passing the F4 exam
Displaying the right qualities
 You will be required to identify the requirements of multiple choice questions quickly, so that you can make
your answers confidently within the available time
 You will be required to interpret scenarios and apply your knowledge to them
 You must therefore be able to apply your skills in a practical context
Avoiding weaknesses
 There is no choice in this paper, all questions have to be answered. You must therefore study the entire
syllabus, there are no short-cuts.
 The ability to answer multiple choice questions improves with practice. Try to get as much practice with
these questions as you can.
 The multiple task questions (MTQs) will be based on simple scenarios and answers must be focused and
specific to the situation.
 Attempt all parts of the MTQs. Even if you cannot answer them in full, you can still gain some marks.
Gaining the easy marks

Some MCQs are easier than others and will take less time to process. Answer those that you feel fairly confident
about as quickly as you can. Come back later to those you find more difficult. This could be a way of making use of
the time in the examination most efficiently and effectively. Many MCQs will not involve calculations. Make sure that
you understand the wording of MCQs before selecting your answer.
viii Passing F4
The Computer Based Examination
Computer based examinations (CBEs) are available for the English and Global variants of the F4 exam in addition to
the conventional paper based examination.
Computer based examinations must be taken at an ACCA CBE Licensed Centre.
How does CBE work?

 Questions are displayed on a monitor
 Candidates enter their answer directly onto the computer
 Candidates have two hours to complete the examination
 When the candidate has completed their examination, the final percentage score is calculated and displayed
on screen
 Candidates are provided with a Provisional Result Notification showing their results before leaving the
examination room
 The CBE Licensed Centre uploads the results to the ACCA (as proof of the candidate's performance) within
72 hours
 Candidates can check their exam status on the ACCA website by logging into myACCA.
Benefits
 Flexibility as a CBE can be sat at any time.
 Resits can also be taken at any time and there is no restriction on the number of times a candidate can sit a
CBE.
 Instant feedback as the computer displays the results at the end of the CBE.
 Results are notified to ACCA within 72 hours.
CBE question types

 Multiple choice – choose one answer from three or four options
 Multiple response – select one or more responses by clicking the appropriate tick boxes
 Multiple response matching – select a response to a number of related part questions by choosing one
option from a selection
The Computer Based Examination ix

Tackling Multiple Choice Questions
The MCQs in your exam contain three or four possible answers. You have to choose the option that best answers
the question. The incorrect options are called distracters. There is a skill in answering MCQs quickly and correctly.
By practising MCQs you can develop this skill, giving you a better chance of passing the exam.
You may wish to follow the approach outlined below, or you may prefer to adapt it.
Step 1 Skim read all the MCQs and identify what appear to be the easier questions.
Step 2 Attempt each question – starting with the easier questions identified in Step 1. Read the
question thoroughly. You may prefer to work out the answer before looking at the options, or you
may prefer to look at the options at the beginning. Adopt the method that works best for you.
Step 3 Read the four options and see if one matches your own answer.
Step 4 You may find that none of the options matches your answer.
 Re-read the question to ensure that you understand it and are answering the requirement
 Eliminate any obviously wrong answers
 Consider which of the remaining answers is the most likely to be correct and select the
option
Step 5 If you are still unsure make a note and continue to the next question
Step 6 Revisit unanswered questions. When you come back to a question after a break you often find
you are able to answer it correctly straight away. If you are still unsure have a guess. You are not
penalised for incorrect answers, so never leave a question unanswered!
After extensive practice and revision of MCQs, you may find that you recognise a question when you sit the exam.
Be aware that the detail and/or requirement may be different. If the question seems familiar read the requirement
and options carefully – do not assume that it is identical.
