I just did the EOCs for pension accting, again, and was pretty upset on the difficulty. Now, perhaps its bc i hated this section and have gone through it countless times, but i think the questions dont provide the actual content the justice it deserves. I have no compliants if come exam day, the questions reflect this level of difficulty but i have a feeling they are going to be much harder.
In other subjects, for all of you (i assume everyone) seeking motivation. listen to 300 violin -aka Vitor Belfort’s walk out music.
Have you watched the Elan video for it. I would highly highly recomend their video on pensions. It’s 4 hours long, but well worth it IMHO.
I’ve done 4 mocks and seriously don’t recall seeing any pension questions.
I’m pretty confident on the subject now - I was just seeking some in depth multi calcs instead of basic questions like “if the discount rate decreases, will that impact the interest costs in a positive or negative manner”.
I agree, there are quite a few sections where the EOC’s don’t do the topic justice
Once you really go through and get the concepts down they are pretty easy.
