Hello guys, I still have 25 days left for my Becker CPA review to expire and I am considering purchasing new materials. I am confused between Roger CPA review or Wiley. Can you advise which one is better?

I've been studying for FAR since the end of May, and I want to take it either at the end of August, 1st week in September. I feel like I haven't remembered anything, is there any advice you can give to help? Should I just push back my test? Or do you all have any advice on what to focus on? I'm using Becker and it's my first test!

Hello everyone, Today is the last day of my final Accounting courses needed in order to sit for the CPA exams. It's been a long road and now my journey to a CPA license begins. I was happy to find a CPA review tool with as much help and as cheap as this one because I really didn't want to finance a $2000 review course. The real studying begins now! Good luck to all! Cheers, Paul

Why does a realized gain of $16,000 on AFS investments in Year Two reduce net income and subsequently comprehensive income?

Relating to this question, if there are no expected warranty repairs until Year Two of the warranty period, would the estimated cost not be recorded for Year Two instead when that is when this potential cost is anticipated to occur?

How did you get $580,000 as the average stockholder's equity? I agree with $660,000 ending balance and shouldn't this be divided by $200,000?... making my answer 30.3 percent.

I used these study questions to review for BEC after I was sick of seeing the same questions from Becker's self-study course. I scored 11 points higher on BEC than I did on Audit, and my only difference in studying technique was these questions! I highly recommend that everyone uses them, especially for the IT questions which I didn't think Becker did a great job of representing accurately. (I passed audit with a 76 and BEC with an 87.) Best of luck to everyone studying, nothing worthwhile was ever easy!

Good luck to everyone!
