  总的来说,SIM 很简单,选择题很难啊,因为没有做过实物,好多题都不知道做错了还是做对了,等分的日子很艰难。。
  Sample 就考了一道选择题。没时间复习的同学们,可以考虑不用看了

  simulation 和之前的jj有几道重复的
  1)飞机impairment, JE
  2) component depreciation (IFRS) JE
  3) debt restructuring, debtor/creditor JE
  4) Purchase a company with bond(premium), cash, 还有acquisition fee什么的
  5) construction in progress, percentage of cost method, 主要就考了AR/AP/ CASH Payment,还有revenue的JE
  6)我自己觉得最难的就是financing activities, C/F statement.有4个例子,CFO compensation option exercised, bond issue cost, dividend paid, 还有一个什么borrowing agreement(题目我没读懂,到底是借没借钱,还是只是签了那个可以借的agreement)
  7)FASB codification: 找insurance 公司liabilities of future payment acrrual.问的是assumption used to calculate, 我就用了那个probable event 有哪些,没有用那个到底既哪个数字...想了很久不知道用哪了..
  Multiple choice: 3份我个人觉得考了很多很多很多US gaap IFRS的 fv measurement, inventory measurement, impairment, 的区别。还有allowance, AR, COGS的balance 算法。然后就有几题pension cost的的算法,都只要简单跳出来加减就好,不用自己算amortization什么,non-profit/government继续很多,很多概念题,定义题,F/S名称题...最后就还有些equity定义/goodwill的题目..最让我措手不及的是,超多disclosure的细节,我真心没看,靠感觉做的...
  总的来说,感觉一直在考我一样的东西,不知道是不是前面都错了,然后继续再考我...*9个test非常简单,第二个第三个就稍微难点了。时间上我multiple choice2个小时,simulation1个半做完了,检查了半天,撑到最后2分钟...

  MC
  1.IT – types threats in computing environment ( BECKER没有cover), cloud, diseaster recovery , physical assess control
  2.计算:ROI,inventory turnover, direct variance, operating cycle, AR turn over, quick ratio, current ratio, expect value
  3.COSO – ethic and integriy belongs to which principle. Whitle-blower 发现公司里面有盗窃现象。是应该有audit committee 派人调查,还是由complian department 负责人负责,然后通报CEO和audit committee.
  计算是不难,而且里面经常给你一半你所需要的信息,所以需要计算的并不多。但是你得需要理解问题在问什么,他经常会给你一堆你不需要的信息来误导你,但是实际实际需要用到几选的信息不多,所以看题一定要仔细。关于Concept problems,题目总会给你个情况然后让你判断,所以像COSO那些Concept多的,一定要去理解,里面很少有题会问的比较书面,他总会让你根据情形来判断,所以看书的时候一定要举一反三,才能更深刻的去理解 。
