要考ACCA的同学看过来!你分得清学员、准会员、会员吗?

发布时间:2020-02-18


在我们报考ACCA后,会经历很多阶段,每个阶段都有不同的角色,分别是ACCA学员、ACCA准会员以及ACCA会员。有很多同学容易把三个角色搞混,那么,今天,51题库考试学习网带领大家一起来了解一下。

三者的主要含义:

 ACCA学员:已注册成功,并进行相关科目考试的学员。

ACCA准学员:如果学员通过了全部考试,但暂时还不具备3年专业实践经验,或者还没有完成道德测试,则可以先成为准会员。

ACCA会员:13科全部通过,并且有3年相关工作经验的ACCA.对很多人来说,通过ACCA专业会计考试固然是一个重要的收获,但任务只完成了一半。如果能够成为一个专业会计师组织的会员,那么无论你在哪个行业从事财务工作,都表明你既拥有实践经验,又拥有在学习备考过程中获得的理论知识。因此,对我们来说,相关工作经验的要求,也是我们需要完成的一项任务。ACCA专业组织坚持要求会员通过“持续职业发展”不断更新知识,提高能力,使他们时刻走在专业领域最前沿,也与这一因素有很大关系。

知道了三者的区别,你知道ACCA准会员如何转会员吗?

如果学员通过了全部ACCA考试科目,但暂时还不具备3年专业实践经验,或者还没有完成在线职业操守训练课程的学习和测试,可以先成为准会员。

以下是成为会员之前要学习的课程介绍:

1.关于在线职业操守训练课程

ACCA的在线职业操守训练课程,用以检验学员职业操守的价值观和行为。学员可以自己灵活掌握学习时间,但是必须在申请会员之前完成课程的学习。

2.实践经验要求具备工作经验是成为会员的一个非常重要的条件。

在还没ACCA报名参加ACCA考试之前、考试期间、考试完成之后取得的工作经验ACCA都认可。如何证明自己拥有三年相关工作经验?工作经验记录学员回答TDM相关问题,来记录自己的工作绩效,并需要上司的签字认可,之后通过网络或书面的形式提交即可。年度报告提交每年的最后一个季度,ACCA会员申请者需通过网络或书面的形式提交年度报告,陈述自己当年的某要素领域的绩效考核指标及岗位工作时长。如果申请者受雇于ACCA黄金或白金级雇主,可无须填写详细的TDM,只需在年度报告中声明这一点即可。设置考核条件与监督人会员申请者在工作中要有一名指导人对其在以下方面进行监督指导:选择绩效考核的领域;设定要达到的工作绩效的目标和时间;提供适当的条件和支持;定期进行审核评估。指导人可以是申请人的直接上司、所在单位的部门经理或其他个人。

好了,以上就是关ACCA学员、准会员以及会员的介绍。如果还想了解更多信息,欢迎来51题库考试学习网留言哦!


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 Mark Howe, Managing Director of Auto Direct, is a victim of his own success. Mark has created an innovative way

of selling cars to the public which takes advantage of the greater freedom given to independent car distributors to

market cars more aggressively within the European Union. This reduces the traditional control and interference of the

automobile manufacturers, some of whom own their distributors. He has opened a number of showrooms in the

London region and by 2004 Auto Direct had 20 outlets in and around London. The concept is deceptively simple;

Mark buys cars from wherever he can source them most cheaply and has access to all of the leading volume car

models. He then concentrates on selling the cars to the public, leaving servicing and repair work to other specialist

garages. He offers a classic high volume/low margin business model.

Mark now wants to develop this business model onto a national and eventually an international basis. His immediate

plans are to grow the number of outlets by 50% each year for the next three years. Such growth will place

considerable strain on the existing organisation and staff. Each showroom has its own management team, sales

personnel and administration. Currently the 20 showrooms are grouped into a Northern and Southern Sales Division

with a small head office team for each division. Auto Direct now employs 250 people.

Mark now needs to communicate the next three-year phase of the company’s ambitious growth plans to staff and is

anxious to get an understanding of staff attitudes towards the company and its growth plans. He is aware that you

are a consultant used to advising firms on the changes associated with rapid growth and the way to generate positive

staff attitudes to change.

Required:

(a) Using appropriate strategies for managing change provide Mark with a brief report on how he can best create

a positive staff response to the proposed growth plans. (12 marks)

正确答案:
(a) To: Mark Howe – Managing Director, Auto Direct
From:
Strategies to manage growth
Successfully convincing others in the firm of the need for, and nature of change is sometimes referred to as internal marketing
and in many ways when substantial change is involved may be just as vital as external marketing aimed at the customer.
Classic strategies for managing include participation, education/communication, power/coercion, manipulation and
negotiation. The preferred strategy, or combination of strategies, will be influenced by leadership style. and where on the
continuum from autocratic through to democratic the management style. rests. Participation in the change process sounds an
ideal strategy but may delay implementation of the change, require high trust levels between management and staff and
encounter resistance to proposed change. Education and communication is often argued to be a strategy used in conjunction
with another strategy. Interestingly, many studies point to communication being the key weakness when change is being
implemented. Clearly there are many choices as to how to educate and communicate and choosing the right strategy for the
right situation is by no means easy. The level of change at Auto Direct may be seen as a quantum change in that it affects
all parts of the organisation and you should be aware of the complex linkages between these parts. Power/coercion may be
needed if the change planned needs to be implemented quickly as in crisis situations, when the survival of the organisation
may be at stake. Such an approach may alienate the staff and have a number of unanticipated and unfortunate
consequences. Manipulation, as its name implies, may have many negative consequences and reflects the power of the
management to implement change. Finally, negotiation is a traditional way of seeking to resolve differences between different
groups, each with its own goals and objectives. Again issues of time, trust and resistance may affect the effectiveness of this
strategy.
Many other change management models are available to help you overcome resistance to change including Lewin’s threestep
change and force field analysis and the Gemini 4Rs framework. The Gemini model aims at the sort of transformation
required by the scope and pace of the proposed growth strategy, where the reframing step communicates the vision, the need
for involvement and measures of successful change and the renewal step aligns the individual’s skills and competences withthe organisation’s needs in order to implement the change strategy.
I trust this overview of strategies for managing change is helpful.

1 The scientists in the research laboratories of Swan Hill Company (SHC, a public listed company) recently made a very

important discovery about the process that manufactured its major product. The scientific director, Dr Sonja Rainbow,

informed the board that the breakthrough was called the ‘sink method’. She explained that the sink method would

enable SHC to produce its major product at a lower unit cost and in much higher volumes than the current process.

It would also produce lower unit environmental emissions and would substantially improve product quality compared

to its current process and indeed compared to all of the other competitors in the industry.

SHC currently has 30% of the global market with its nearest competitor having 25% and the other twelve producers

sharing the remainder. The company, based in the town of Swan Hill, has a paternalistic management approach and

has always valued its relationship with the local community. Its website says that SHC has always sought to maximise

the benefit to the workforce and community in all of its business decisions and feels a great sense of loyalty to the

Swan Hill locality which is where it started in 1900 and has been based ever since.

As the board considered the implications of the discovery of the sink method, chief executive Nelson Cobar asked

whether Sonja Rainbow was certain that SHC was the only company in the industry that had made the discovery and

she said that she was. She also said that she was certain that the competitors were ‘some years’ behind SHC in their

research.

It quickly became clear that the discovery of the sink method was so important and far reaching that it had the

potential to give SHC an unassailable competitive advantage in its industry. Chief executive Nelson Cobar told board

colleagues that they should clearly understand that the discovery had the potential to put all of SHC’s competitors out

of business and make SHC the single global supplier. He said that as the board considered the options, members

should bear in mind the seriousness of the implications upon the rest of the industry.

Mr Cobar said there were two strategic options. Option one was to press ahead with the huge investment of new plant

necessary to introduce the sink method into the factory whilst, as far as possible, keeping the nature of the sink

technology secret from competitors (the ‘secrecy option’). A patent disclosing the nature of the technology would not

be filed so as to keep the technology secret within SHC. Option two was to file a patent and then offer the use of the

discovery to competitors under a licensing arrangement where SHC would receive substantial royalties for the twentyyear

legal lifetime of the patent (the ‘licensing option’). This would also involve new investment but at a slower pace

in line with competitors. The licence contract would, Mr Cobar explained, include an ‘improvement sharing’

requirement where licensees would be required to inform. SHC of any improvements discovered that made the sink

method more efficient or effective.

The sales director, Edwin Kiama, argued strongly in favour of the secrecy option. He said that the board owed it to

SHC’s shareholders to take the option that would maximise shareholder value. He argued that business strategy was

all about gaining competitive advantage and this was a chance to do exactly that. Accordingly, he argued, the sink

method should not be licensed to competitors and should be pursued as fast as possible. The operations director said

that to gain the full benefits of the sink method with either option would require a complete refitting of the factory and

the largest capital investment that SHC had ever undertaken.

The financial director, Sean Nyngan, advised the board that pressing ahead with investment under the secrecy option

was not without risks. First, he said, he would have to finance the investment, probably initially through debt, and

second, there were risks associated with any large investment. He also informed the board that the licensing option

would, over many years, involve the inflow of ‘massive’ funds in royalty payments from competitors using the SHC’s

patented sink method. By pursuing the licensing option, Sean Nyngan said that they could retain their market

leadership in the short term without incurring risk, whilst increasing their industry dominance in the future through

careful investment of the royalty payments.

The non-executive chairman, Alison Manilla, said that she was looking at the issue from an ethical perspective. She

asked whether SHC had the right, even if it had the ability, to put competitors out of business.

Required:

(a) Assess the secrecy option using Tucker’s model for decision-making. (10 marks)

正确答案:
(a) Tucker’s framework
Is the decision:
Profitable? For SHC, the answer to this question is yes. Profits would potentially be substantially increased by the loss of all
of its competitors and the emergence of SHC, in the short to medium term at least, as a near monopolist.
Legal? The secrecy option poses no legal problems as it is a part of normal competitive behaviour in industries. In some
jurisdictions, legislation forbids monopolies existing in some industries but there is no indication from the case that this
restriction applies to Swan Hill Company.
Fair? The fairness of the secrecy option is a moral judgment. It is probably fair when judged from the perspective of SHC’s
shareholders but the question is the extent to which it is fair to the employees and shareholders of SHC’s competitors.
Right? Again, a question of ethical perspective. Is it right to pursue the subjugation of competitors and the domination of an
industry regardless of the consequences to competitors? The secrecy option may be of the most benefit to the local community
of Swan Hill that the company has traditionally valued.
Sustainable or environmentally sound? The case says that the sink method emits at a lower rate per unit of output than the
existing process but this has little to do with the secrecy option as the rates of emissions would apply if SHC licensed the
process. This is also an argument for the licensing option, however, as environmental emissions would be lower if other
competitors switched to the sink method as well. There may be environmental implications in decommissioning the old plant
to make way for the new sink method investment.

5 (a) ‘In the case of an assurance engagement it is in the public interest and, therefore, required by this Code of Ethics,

that members of assurance teams … be independent of assurance clients’.

IFAC Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants

Required:

Define the term ‘assurance team’. (3 marks)

正确答案:
5 ETHICS COLUMN
(a) ‘Assurance team’
■ All members of the engagement team (for the assurance engagement);
■ All others within a firm who can directly influence the outcome of the assurance engagement, for example:
– those who recommend the compensation of, or who provide direct supervisory, management or other oversight of
the assurance engagement partner in connection with the performance of the assurance engagement;
– those who provide consultation regarding technical or industry specific issues, transactions or events for the
assurance engagement; and
– those who provide quality control for the assurance.

(b) (i) State FOUR reasons why payback period is widely used by organisations in the capital investment

appraisal process. (2 marks)

正确答案:
(b) (i) Payback period is widely used by organisations in the capital investment appraisal process due to the following reasons:
– It is easy to calculate and understand
– There is a lack of understanding of more sophisticated techniques which take into consideration the time value of
money
– Payback may be expedient for organisations who need to recover their capital outlay quickly due to the fact that
they are experiencing liquidity problems
– Payback is appropriate for smaller investments which do not warrant the use of more sophisticated techniques
– Payback reduces uncertainty by focusing on nearer and therefore more certain cash flows.
