How do you understand the revenue and purchasing operating cycles? I keep having a hard time grasping those. All I can memorize are that operating cycle stuff include sales order, bill of lading, sales invoice, and purchasing cycle stuff includes purchase order and receiving report.

I never understood it either… To this day… If you are using Becker, they make it seems so “common sense”, like “well duh, before sales order, we need credit approval” or something.

But on the exam/MCQ the questions don't ask you that stuff. They ask stuff that Becker does't really teaches about the cycles.

Sorry, I'm not helpful at all lol :c

BEC - PASS (79)
AUD - PASS (63, 71, 74, 74, 83)
REG - PASS (88)
FAR - PASS (58, 89)

Becker for all + FAR 10 Point Combo

You need to memorize the right information. You need to memorize who is in charge of the ARCC.

Authorization

Recording

Custody

Comparison

Like on sales, if the credit department needs to Authorize a sale then they can not also record the sale. Each item in the ARCC needs to be done by a different individual. Know the ARCC for each member and for each cycle. I get correct about 84% of the questions that deal with Cycles based on what I just explained. I was praying to get a lot of questions on Cycles or Assertions,but i did not.

@Martin:

Is Comparison a new part of the ARC. I learned ARC as the first three you mentioned but it did not include the extra C (comparison)?

Can you explain what Comparison is?

Comparison would be bank reconciliation

[Martin]

The comparison part is the bank rec just like Deede mentioned. The person who does the Bank rec C can not do any of the other ARC duties.
