快讯!来了解考完CMA能够免考几门ACCA呢?

发布时间:2020-05-11


对于CMA和ACCA的课程设置还是不同的,ACCA主要方向还是财务会计和审计,虽然也涉及管理会计内容但是不是重点,而CMA则代表着会计发展的方向

不论你选择财务会计、审计、税务、成本、预算、资金或是其它会计模块,随着职业发展,都必将走入管理会计领域,并很可能因在管理会计领域卓有成效的工作,最终走向最高管理层。

就知名度而言呢,ACCAA肯定是比CMA高的,CMA虽然其美誉度很高,但是在中国的宣传不够,知名度不高,CMA的知名度只有在外资中高层才有较强的体现。

得知ACCA特许公认会计师公会,成立于1904年,是目前世界上最大及最有影响力的专业会计师组织之一,也是在运作上通向国际化及发展最快的会计师专业团体。目前已在世界上各主要国家都设立了分部、办事处及联络处。

CMA认证的目的在培育管理会计人员和财务管理人员的知识广度,使其能预测商业的需求及参与策略决策制定。而其考试的内容所包含的知识范围能反映管理会计人员和财务管理人员在现今商业环境所需要的能力。

CMA与ACCA之间是可以免考的,只不过要想免考ACCA是需要拿到CMA证书的。考过CMA两门课程可以免考ACCA部分科目,可以免考ACCA三个科目是AB、MA、FA。

不过,无论是CMA中文或者英文考试的持证者均可以。ACCA与CMA证书区别:ACCA有13门课程,考试内容包括会计、审计、税法等,内容庞杂,比较适合在外企。

从事财务会计、审计的人考取,因为它的大部分内容还是偏会计与审计,基础类课程比较多,每年报考的群体里,80%以上是在读学生。

CMA只有2门课程,P1-财务报告、规划、绩效与控制和P2-财务决策;中英文两种考试语言,每年3次考试时间。

CMA考试关注对考生在财务计划、分析、成本控制和决策支持等方面的关键技能的考察,考生不仅需要掌握财务计划、分析、成本控制和决策支持等方面的相关知识,还需要懂得如何熟练运用这些关键技能,从而加大企业对CMA认证的认可。

两者都是当前财会领域里比较热门的国际证书,由于ACCA协会和IMA协会签订了合作协议,因而考过CMA两门课程可以免考ACCA部分科目。

此协议在目前仍旧有效,通过CMA中文或者英文考试的学员,可以在报考前申请免考ACCA前三个科目。

好了,今日内容分享到这里就结束了,如果看完本篇文章还意犹未尽的话,也可到帮考官网进行详细探讨,祝大家考试成功,一切顺利吧。


下面小编为大家准备了 ACCA考试 的相关考题,供大家学习参考。

3 Seejoy is a famous football club but has significant cash flow problems. The directors and shareholders wish to take

steps to improve the club’s financial position. The following proposals had been drafted in an attempt to improve the

cash flow of the club. However, the directors need advice upon their implications.

(a) Sale and leaseback of football stadium (excluding the land element)

The football stadium is currently accounted for using the cost model in IAS16, ‘Property, Plant, and Equipment’.

The carrying value of the stadium will be $12 million at 31 December 2006. The stadium will have a remaining

life of 20 years at 31 December 2006, and the club uses straight line depreciation. It is proposed to sell the

stadium to a third party institution on 1 January 2007 and lease it back under a 20 year finance lease. The sale

price and fair value are $15 million which is the present value of the minimum lease payments. The agreement

transfers the title of the stadium back to the football club at the end of the lease at nil cost. The rental is

$1·2 million per annum in advance commencing on 1 January 2007. The directors do not wish to treat this

transaction as the raising of a secured loan. The implicit interest rate on the finance in the lease is 5·6%.

(9 marks)

Required:

Discuss how the above proposals would be dealt with in the financial statements of Seejoy for the year ending

31 December 2007, setting out their accounting treatment and appropriateness in helping the football club’s

cash flow problems.

(Candidates do not need knowledge of the football finance sector to answer this question.)

2 David Gould set up his accounting firm, providing accounting services to small businesses, in 2001. Within three

years his fee income was in excess of £100K a year and he had nearly 100 clients most of whom had been gained

through word of mouth. David recognised that these small or micro businesses, typically employing ten or fewer

people, were receiving less than satisfactory service from their current accountants. These accounting firms typically

had between five and ten partners and operated regionally and not nationally. Evidence of poor service included

limited access to their particular accountant, poor response time to clients’ enquiries and failure to identify

opportunities to save clients money. In addition bad advice, lack of interest in business development opportunities for

the client and poor internal communication between the partners and their staff contributed to client dissatisfaction.

David has deliberately kept the costs of the business down by employing three part-time accountants and relying on

his wife to run the office.

David had recently met Ian King who ran a similar sized accounting firm. The personal chemistry between the two

and complementary skills led to a partnership being proposed. Gould and King Associates, subject to securing the

necessary funding, is to be launched in September 2006. David is to focus on the business development side of the

partnership and Ian on the core services provided. Indicative of their creative thinking is David’s conviction that

accounting services are promoted very inadequately with little attempt to communicate with clients using the Internet.

He is also convinced that there are real opportunities for the partnership to move into new areas such as providing

accountancy services for property developers, both at home and abroad. Ian feels that the partnership should set up

its own subsidiary in India, enjoying the benefits of much cheaper accountancy staff and avoiding the costs and

complications of outsourcing their core accounting services. Ian sees fee income growing to £2 million in five years’

time.

David has been asked by his bank to provide it with a business plan setting out how the partnership intends to grow

and develop.

Required:

(a) Write a short report for David giving the key features that you consider to be important and that you would

expect to see in the business plan for the Gould and King partnership that David has to present to his bank.

(12 marks)

正确答案:
(a) To: David Gould
From:
Writing a business plan is a critical stage in moving an idea for a business into a reality. The reality includes presenting a
convincing case to potential financers of the business, be they banks or venture capitalists. The key ingredients include clearly
saying what you plan to do and why people should want to buy your particular service. Experts warn of starting with a detailed
cash flow and then working backwards to make the numbers fit. You should regard the business plan as a management tool
and not simply a sales document. Again, the advice is to make credible and achievable projections; it is better to exceed low
targets than fail to achieve over-ambitious ones. Many business plans are based on deeply flawed research. Key to your
business success will be the size of your target market. There is much evidence to suggest that it is the make-up of the team
presenting the plan and their commitment rather than the business idea itself that will determine whether the necessary
financial support is made.
Clearly, you need to say how much money you require and why. Again the advice is not to be afraid to ask for large amounts
if your business requires it. Linked to how much you want is a clear statement of the return the investor or lender will get –
how much of the equity are you willing to give or what security can you offer the lender? Figure are important and you need
projected cash flows, profit and loss accounts and balance sheets for at least three years ahead. Potential investors and/or
lenders are likely to be impressed by a plan which clearly indicates where the major risks are to be found and the strategies
available to handle such risks.
There needs to be a clear statement of the major steps and milestones on the way to achieving your goals. Where are you
now, where do you intend to be and how are you going to get there. One expert argues there are three elements of the plan
itself – an executive summary pulling together the key points in your proposal, secondly the plan itself and finally an ‘elevator
pitch’, a one paragraph description that explains the business in the time it takes to go up in a lift.
In summary, your business plan should contain an executive summary as explained above, the objectives of the business,
including key financial targets and the philosophy of the business, the target market and relevant forecasts, the range of
products/services, the marketing strategy linked to the target markets, resource availability, people and organisation involved,
performance measurement to measure progress towards stated objectives and a summary of financial information.
One final point is to remember that no business plan ever was carried out exactly! In many ways it is the quality of the thinking
the plan includes and the actual process through which it is developed that will determine success.
Yours,

Big Cheese Chairs (BCC) manufactures and sells executive leather chairs. They are considering a new design of massaging chair to launch into the competitive market in which they operate.

They have carried out an investigation in the market and using a target costing system have targeted a competitive selling price of $120 for the chair. BCC wants a margin on selling price of 20% (ignoring any overheads).

The frame. and massage mechanism will be bought in for $51 per chair and BCC will upholster it in leather and assemble it ready for despatch.

Leather costs $10 per metre and two metres are needed for a complete chair although 20% of all leather is wasted in the upholstery process.

The upholstery and assembly process will be subject to a learning effect as the workers get used to the new design.

BCC estimates that the first chair will take two hours to prepare but this will be subject to a learning rate (LR) of 95%.

The learning improvement will stop once 128 chairs have been made and the time for the 128th chair will be the time for all subsequent chairs. The cost of labour is $15 per hour.

The learning formula is shown on the formula sheet and at the 95% learning rate the value of b is -0·074000581.

Required:

(a) Calculate the average cost for the first 128 chairs made and identify any cost gap that may be present at

that stage. (8 marks)

(b) Assuming that a cost gap for the chair exists suggest four ways in which it could be closed. (6 marks)

The production manager denies any claims that a cost gap exists and has stated that the cost of the 128th chair will be low enough to yield the required margin.

(c) Calculate the cost of the 128th chair made and state whether the target cost is being achieved on the 128th chair. (6 marks)

正确答案:

(W1)
The cost of the labour can be calculated using learning curve principles. The formula can be used or a tabular approach would
also give the average cost of 128 chairs. Both methods are acceptable and shown here.

(b) To reduce the cost gap various methods are possible (only four are needed for full marks)
– Re-design the chair to remove unnecessary features and hence cost
– Negotiate with the frame. supplier for a better cost. This may be easier as the volume of sales improve as suppliers often
are willing to give discounts for bulk buying. Alternatively a different frame. supplier could be found that offers a better
price. Care would be needed here to maintain the required quality
– Leather can be bought from different suppliers or at a better price also. Reducing the level of waste would save on cost.
Even a small reduction in waste rates would remove much of the cost gap that exists
– Improve the rate of learning by better training and supervision
– Employ cheaper labour by reducing the skill level expected. Care would also be needed here not to sacrifice quality or
push up waste rates.
(c) The cost of the 128th chair will be:
