NINJA Question –

The AICPA has BEC split into 6 sections:

Corporate Governance (16-20%)

Economic Concepts & Analysis (16-20%)

Financial Management ( 19-23%)

IT (15-19%)

Strategic Planning (10-14%)

Operations Management (12-16%)

In the NINJA Framework – there are 9 sections:

Economics (16-20%)

IT(15-19%)

Cost Accounting ?

Capital Budgeting ?

Financial Management (19-23%)

Corporate Governance (16-20%)

Performance Measures ?

Risk Management ?

Financial Planning & Analysis ?

Some are an obvious match, but can anyone help to fill in the blanks?? Trying to determine weight of each section per NINJA.

Are you talking about NINJA Notes Framework, right?

NINJA MCQs and BEC-Book are laid out almost the same way AICPA splits the six (6) BEC sections.

I compared it with my Becker book and so here's the flow of the outline I came up with:

I don't think I was able to answer your question with my post above. But I just don't see the point of weighing each section of the NINJA Notes when NINJA MCQs clearly lays out the category description and spreads the questions well. Though NM has the least questions for COSO out of the six sections. I wish I could see more COSO questions than that.
To me, it's best to utilize NN by studying it along with the audio and writing the key notes.
