I took cost accounting in College. I have not touched that yet because i'm using Wiley. So far, I have gone through Corporate Governance, IT, Economics and hope to finish Risk managment and capital budgeting tonight. I have not really studied these chapters in detail, I'm just trying to learn and then going back for stuff i'm having a hard time with. I may need the risk management lecture and Jeff'sNinja notes for a better understanding of Beta, coefficient variations. Somehow I'm having a hard time with that, but the Wiley test bank only asks maybe a couple of questions on the difficult stuff somehow, so thats how my score is higher than what it should be. I feel lost at times, don't remember formulas, but I figure out the solution somehow. It's weird. I'm going to just keep pressing on though.
NYC. I haven't gotten that far yet but if you have a question you can post and I'll try and help. I'm a financial analyst and I do have some knowledge of risk management, Beta testing, etc.

What I don't like about Yaeger for BEC is that most of the lecture is reading back to you word-for-word straight from the book. I mean I get that for the IT section and maybe corporate governance, but not the other sections. I stopped highlighting during the lectures once I realized nothing is really skipped over.
Ok @ Casa I think I'm getting the idea. Checked my study materials and I actually got 4/5 of those question correct. Anyway, I'll be asking for help, so thanks in advance lol.
Also, what's the deal with flexible budgets? Are the constant for volume? The problems in Becker mostly say yes, but one question says it's based on activity levels. What gives?
ndpendentbw: I'm a little late in the game, but I would recommend MDS CPA Review. So far that's all I've been using and its worked pretty well (ill find out my REG score Fri, hopefully 3 for 3! 🙂 its pretty cheap compared to Becker, and i feel like he does a good job explaining the topics on the lectures. Hope this helps 🙂
I think nominal GDP includes inflation and real GDP does not. So if you are comparing the cost of a hammer year over year, the hammer might cost 2.00 the first year, and will cost 2.05 the very next year for the same hammer. Even though you bought the same hammer, the inflation rate has caused the price to increase 2.5%. This would be the nominal GDP, because it shows the cost of items at current market prices. Real GDP would adjust this to account for inflation, so that same 2.05/1.025=2 will be discount back to it's real cost not including inflation. Let me know if I am wrong anyone.
