The answer is B. Comparable sales.

“The use of comparable sales is not an income approach to valuation of a business, it is a market approach. Under the comparable sales approach, the value of a business is determined by comparing it to other entities with comparable characteristics for which the value is more readily determinable.”

This was a tricky one

Really don't know how I did. I felt more exhausted coming out this time than last time if that means anything…haha. I definitely knew the material better this time.

I can't believe I spelled “angle” wrong on my post…I must be tired…lol. Maybe I was thinking of an angel to come and save me as I was typing 😉

Anyone take their exam midday as opposed to morning? I've always scheduled my exams for 8 or 9 am, so I never had a lot of time to study on the day of the exam. This time, I'm scheduled for 12:30.

Any tips on what to do with all the time on the day of my exam? Do I review up until my exam? Do I do any MCQs? I'm so used to not reviewing anything on test day to keep from getting overwhelmed.

Passed all sections.

My exam is at 12:45pm tomorrow. I will probably eat a good breakfast, review my formulas and MAYBE do a few MCQs (like 30 or so) before the exam. Or I might just read my notes.

Just got home and already studying. I didn't get as much done this weekend as I planned because I had a migraine all weekend. The same thing happened a week before I took FAR…stress is horrible! Anyways, I got through about 150 IT questions and 40 Financial Management questions and now my plan is to do B1 tonight, B2/B3 tomorrow, B4/B5 on Tuesday and B6 on Wednesday. I am getting questions right but still don't feel ready.

OT: How many questions is everyone completing for BEC? I know it's a lighter section but I'm just curious. I've done about 1700 new questions (Becker and WTB), not including the progress tests I've done which have repeated questions.

[Anonymous]

I'm at about 2000, but that includes all the progress tests that I've been doing, as well as the 2 final exams. Overall, according to my excel spreadsheet I'm averaging an 87.5% on MCQ, but my final exams (exam #1 – 82, exam #2 – 72) don't support that notion too heavily.

I probably did over 2k as well between Wiley TB, book and NINJA. My average was 86% in Wiley.

I have to get through BEC to get to AUD (it was my favorite class in undergrad, I had a really great professor). I went and peaked at the auditing material on Becker yesterday and found a little section that had 5 multiple choice homework's. I took them and got 4/5 (80%). I can't wait to get through BEC!

I think between new and repeated questions, I've probably done around 2000. I still about 30% left in the WTB though. I've done a lot of progress tests in Becker plus I've used CPA Review for Free as a supplement.

Between Roger and Ninja MCQ I am anywhere from 1800 – 2000 attempts. My exam is Friday afternoon. My current Ninja scores are about 5-6% lower than what I am doing in Roger.

I just did a Ninja practice exam today. First one. Scored 75% total. 80% on the MCQ section. 70% on the written section, but I can't say that I agree on how Ninja scores the written section. You do the writing then are asked anywhere from 5-10 “probing” questions after each WC. Your score is based upon these probing questions. Odd…

Good luck @peter! My test on Friday afternoon too. So ready to be done and start studying for my (hopefully) last section!

[JamesBJames]

@CPAin14, don't say that. I just started it. =(

At least there are only 120-odd some HW questions.

@Amanda, I think Becker has around 1300 MCQs total. Add a little more for the practice tests. I have an old Wiley book that I might look at if I feel like I need more questions on my weaker topics, but I'm thinking 1300 MCQs + the BEC notes that Jeff sold for a dollar should be enough.
