Thanks again.

I printed it too because it is something that stumps me every time.

Thanks, BeckerAllTheWay.

I am not there yet, but I am sure this will come in handy BeckerAllTheWay. I remember my advanced accounting class in college and it was miserable! Thanks and good job on the explaination.

BEC: 73,81(7/6/2010); AUD: 75(5/24/2010); FAR: 76(8/31/2010); REG: 77 (10/18/2010) - DONE!!!!

I will be taking the first part of the CPA exam and figured that I would tackle the hardest, FAR, first. I am scheduled to take it 8/4 and would like feedback from people who used Yeager as to benchmarks on on how you did on practice tests. I would appreciate comets regardless of pass or fail to see if there is a point where there is a decent margin of error. I feel confident and ready, but not sure how the test compares to the test bank CD that comes with the Yeager Review. I have another 3 full days and 2 half days to study at 8-10 hours per day and am currently in the mid 80% for scores on practice exams.

FAR - 95
AUD - 82
REG - 94
BEC - 84

gabe 1475 – i remember cindy mentioning in one of the lectures for FAR that the test bank is really only to gauge how the functionality of the exam is going to be. she doesn't actually expect us to do the questions. she said do all the minimum ones she assigns first, then if you still feel you need more practice do all the m.c. questions in the Wiley textbook, plus work the sims she assigned. then go to the aicpa website and do their practice exams, etc.

i don't see how the test bank CD can hurt if you do them. i know before my BEC exam i worked through quite a bit of m.c. in the test bank just to see how i did on the areas i was weak on. for FAR though it might be a little more overwhelming.

are you in the mid-80% for scores in the Wiley book…or test bank CD? i would revisit areas where you feel weak on still (if you have any) and just keep working m.c. questions. good lluck!

AUD - 84; REG - 90; BEC - 79; FAR - 75; ALL DONE!!

day 3 for me at the library yesterday for about 5 hours…i feel like i got BEAT over the head with all that inventory information!!! inventory is NOT my strong point. i would prefer doing a comp or review and the client supplying me with their inventory number and saying ok it looks reasonable. haha and most of them have a periodic system anyway (they count it…and just value it!) i wish there was a “pass…immaterial” selection on the exam! lol

was anybody else confused with DVD 3 on inventory? cindy does a pretty good job explaining it, but i felt it to be a little rushed. i had to keep pausing it and/or rewinding it to make sure i had everything written down. i am definitely going to have to review all the different inventory methods! =/

AUD - 84; REG - 90; BEC - 79; FAR - 75; ALL DONE!!

Lol….Oh, is Cindy the one's who's teaching Inventory- Module 8? I used the 2009 version, and had someone else for that Module. I had to read Dollar value LIFO over and over again because I felt that was a bit rushed.

Mponi123 – The reason I like the test bank is there are lots of questions that are reviewed during the lecture and want to see results of fresh questions. I think they stay away from the test bank as there are some errors, but I look up anything that looks suspect and find it is a great way to study. After each test I print out the answers I got wrong, create a file with those questions and keep a file on the concepts I had incorrect. Derivatives and NFP are my worst, and yes, I am focusing on those areas in addition to the sample tests.

FAR - 95
AUD - 82
REG - 94
BEC - 84

So I am going through Chapter 4 of Becker (Working Capital and Fixed Assets). In one of the multiple choice questions, it asks for the total current liabilities amount in the balance sheet after giving a bunch of items. One of the items given is a deferred tax liability. While it says in the Becker review that a Deferred Tax Liability is included in current liabilities, the question/answer excludes the deferred tax liability. The solution explains that a “deferred income tax payable is a “separate deferred category” on the balance sheet, and thus, is not considered a current item. Does anybody know which is right? Is a deferred tax liability a current liability or not? Thanks for your help

@ Gator

DTL can be included as either a current or non-current liability depending on what has caused the DTL. DTL are classified based on what caused DTL. Therefore, if the DTL is caused by a temporary difference in A/R the DTL will be current. In the event the DTL is caused by a temporary difference in deprecation the DTL will be classified as long-term. These concepts are covered in detail in F-6. Without seeing your question I would think there may be some tricking wording that is excluded the DTL as a current liability. Hope this helps
