    SO I know every test is different but does anyone have any insight on what has been heavily tested recently? I take the exam Monday and I need to narrow my focus….Thanks!

    @mb0363 The answer should be D. $7500 gain.

    You need to mark to market. You started with them owing you $50,000 (250,000 x 0.20). At December 31 you need to mark to market on your account. Since exchange rate is now .19 they owe you $47,500 (250,000 x 0.19) and this is your Due From account. Think of this as your new starting point.

    Now on 2/2 the exchange rate is .22. They now owe you $55,000 (250,000 x 0.22)

    55,000 – 47,500 = $7,500

    FAR tomorrow morning. I honestly don't feel like doing a million MCQ helps for this section. For Govt, NFP, yea…but for Chapters 2-7 it's about understanding HOW to do it. This isn't AUD where it's all memorization. I think I'm going to reread and rewatch lectures for my weak spots, and wait till this afternoon into tonight to do 5 or 6 progress tests…Anyone else feel the same or am I on my own?

    I feel that I learn a lot from my mistakes. I have my test on Monday, but I will continue to practice sims one at time and study mode for MC as I want to see what I did right/wrong right away.

    Hi, Looking for a Online study buddy for a early Jan 2015 test date. I have a online study group for AUD and it seemed to work well. We did Google hangouts a few times a week where we did SIMS and MCQ's together. Looking to set up the same situation with FAR.

    @financelady Check out the Q1 FAR study group (below), I think you'll have better luck finding a study buddy there, as we're all hoping to be done with FAR in Q4 🙂
