Ca final cost

Tamanna (Qualified CA) (164 Points)

I will be appearing for CA final in May 2015. I had taken tuition for Cost a year and a half back but now when I'm about to do things on my own I'm not feeling very confident about the way things were taught in class. Even during the classes I was not comfortable with the way the subject was being taught. Costing is a subject which I considered to be one of my strengths till the IPCC level but now I'm really lost as to where to study this subject from. I am not able to study from the class notes and want to know will doing the sums from Institute Mat and PM be sufficient for this paper as I don't really have a lot of time left. Please help.

Well Tamanna... for that to happen, god must be pouring all the good luck's that he's having in the basket on you... to put simply one can't just rely on practice manual....

You can make your O.R super strong and to compliment it.. could do theory well and also few chapters can be done without much "EFFORTS" eg. Standard Costing, Service Sector, Pricing Decisions etc.

there are "DVD's" available... Could refer that also for difficult chapters like Transfer Pricing etc.

I was thinking of doing both the study mat and PM. Not the PM alone. That would just be pushing my luck too hard. Will keep your advice in mind. Dvd's are not an option for me right now since doing classes all over again is not possible with the limited amount of time I have.

For costing PM and Study material is sufficient. Institute has given the best material for cost in case you knw the concepts and want to practice.it has more question then in sanjay sir's book.

Hii... I would firstly suggest that for costing pm plus module plus rtp are perfect...

if u do that well surely no one can stop you from getting exemption marks...

now if u lacking confidence... just trust yourself practice as much as u can.. surely ur confidence will b back,, make a formulae register containing all imp forumales chapter wise revise them weakly...

and dont refer any other book.. its already enough dear

Dear friends,

Can anybody share the stratergy for practicing i.e we won't have sufficient time to practice all the sums hence is it ok if we practice one or two sums and just go through all the sums till we get concpetual clarity.

Kidnly let me know. Thanks in advance

Yes pm and module should be enough. Regarding aswath i normally practice 1 sum of each type and then at the end of all chapters try to practice as many solutions as possible which u find tough. No one can do all...its almost impossible
