I’m taking FAR next week so I’m in the review stages right now….(FYI I’m using Becker) I just realized that the section on inventory is a bit of a week area for me. Specifically the different methods that are in the F4 appendix such as the retail method. Is something i should concern myself with?

That's a tough one. I'd say no after taking FAR once (didn't pass), but a good friend of mine who took FAR (passed with an 81) would say that yes, inventory is a big deal. Luck of the draw (or not), on that one. Sorry.

Anything that is covered in the materials is something you could concern yourself with, but look at the COSO weighting of topics.

I can tell you I had an entire SIM on one exam that was mentioned in one sentence in the APPENDIX to wiley. Threw me for a loop!

FAR- 77
AUD -49, 71, 84
REG -56,75!
BEC -75

Massachusetts CPA (non reporting) since 3/12.

@MattCPA18, I have had maybe 1 multiple choice question from the F4 Appendix and I have taken FAR 4 times now. I am focusing on FIFO, LIFO, etc. and very little on the appendix. I feel that it's best to focus on the major topics. There is just too much material to learn.

FAR - 76
AUD - 88!!! DONE!!!!!!!!
BEC - 76
REG - 77

never, never, never give up

The same thing just happened to me in auditing. I took it twice (71, 72) and never saw anything on a topic. Took it again the other day and had a huge amount from the topic I didn't see on the others. Threw me for a loop, too. It was very surprising!
