Financial Accounting
(F3/FFA)
February 2014 to August
2015
This syllabus and study guide are designed to help
with teaching and learning and is intended to
provide detailed information on what could be
assessed in any examination session.
THE STRUCTURE OF THE SYLLABUS AND
STUDY GUIDE
Relational diagram with other papers
This diagram shows direct and indirect links
between this examination and other examinations
which precede or follow it. Some examinations are
directly underpinned by others. These links are
shown as solid line arrows. The indirect links are
shown as dotted line arrows. The relational diagram
therefore indicates where learners are expected to
have underpinning knowledge and where it would
be useful to review previous learning before
undertaking study.
Overall aim of the syllabus
This explains briefly the overall objective of the
examination and indicates in the broadest sense the
capabilities to be developed within the examination.
Main capabilities
This syllabus’s aim is broken down into several
main capabilities which divide the syllabus and
study guide into discrete sections.
Relational diagram of main capabilities
This diagram illustrates the flows and links between
the main capabilities (sections) of the syllabus and
should be used as an aid to planning teaching and
learning in a structured way.
Syllabus rationale
This is a narrative explaining how the syllabus is
structured and how the main capabilities or sections
of the syllabus are linked. The rationale also
explains in further detail what the examination
intends to assess and how.
Detailed syllabus
This shows the breakdown of the main capabilities
(sections) of the syllabus into subject areas. This is
the blueprint for the detailed study guide.
Approach to examining the syllabus
This section briefly explains the structure of the
examination and how it is assessed.
Study Guide
This is the main document that students and
learning and content providers should use as the
basis of their studies, instruction and materials
respectively.
Examinations will be based on the detail of the
study guide which comprehensively identifies what
could be assessed within any examination session.
The study guide is a precise reflection and
breakdown of the syllabus. It is divided into sections
based on the main capabilities identified in the
syllabus. These sections are divided into subject
areas which relate to the sub-capabilities included
in the detailed syllabus. Subject areas are broken
down into sub-headings which describe the detailed
outcomes that could be assessed in examinations.
These outcomes indicate what exams may require
students to demonstrate, and the broad intellectual
level at which these may need to be demonstrated
(*see intellectual levels below)。
LEVEL OF ASSESSMENTS – INTELLECTUAL
DEMAND
ACCA qualifications are designed to progressively
broaden and deepen the knowledge and skills
demonstrated by the student at a range of levels
through each qualification.
Throughout, the study guides assess both
knowledge and skills. Therefore a clear distinction is
drawn, within each subject area, between assessing
knowledge and skills and in assessing their
application within an accounting or business
context. The assessment of knowledge is denoted by
a superscriptK and the assessment of skills is
denoted by the superscriptS.

VALUE OF ASSESSMENTS – GUIDED LEARNING
HOURS AND EDUCATION RECOGNITION
As a member of the International Federation of
Accountants, ACCA seeks to enhance the education
recognition of its qualification on both national and
international education frameworks, and with
educational authorities and partners globally. In
doing so, ACCA aims to ensure that its qualifications
are recognized and valued by governments,
regulatory authorities and employers across all
sectors. To this end, ACCA qualifications are
currently recognized on the education frameworks in
several countries. Please refer to your national
education framework regulator for further
information about recognition.
GUIDE TO EXAM STRUCTURE
The structure of examinations varies within and
between modules and levels.
The Foundations examinations contain 100%
compulsory questions to encourage candidates to
study across the breadth of each syllabus.
All Foundations examinations are assessed by twohour
paper based and computer based
examinations.
The pass mark for all FIA examination papers is
50%.
GUIDE TO EXAMINATION ASSESSMENT
ACCA reserves the right to examine anything
contained within any study guide within any
examination session. This includes knowledge,
techniques, principles, theories, and concepts as
specified.
For specified financial accounting, audit and tax
papers, except where indicated otherwise, ACCA
will publish examinable documents once a year to
indicate exactly what regulations and legislation
could potentially be assessed within identified
examination sessions.
For this examination regulation issued or legislation
passed on or before 30th September 2013, will be
assessed from February 2014 to August 31st 2015.
Please refer to the examinable documents for the
paper (where relevant) for further information.
Regulation issued or legislation passed in
accordance with the above dates may be
examinable even if the effective date is in the future.
The term issued or passed relates to when
regulation or legislation has been formally approved.
The term effective relates to when regulation or
legislation must be applied to entity transactions
and business practices.
The study guide offers more detailed guidance on
the depth and level at which the examinable
documents will be examined. The study guide
should therefore be read in conjunction with the
examinable documents list.

APPROACH TO EXAMINING THE SYLLABUS
THE SYLLABUS IS ASSESSED BY A TWO HOUR
PAPER-BASED OR COMPUTER-BASED
EXAMINATION.
The syllabus is assessed by a two hour paper-based
or computer-based examination. Questions will
assess all parts of the syllabus and will test
knowledge and some comprehension or application
of this knowledge. The examination will consist of
two sections. Section A will contain 35 two mark
objective questions. Section B will contain 2 fifteen
mark multi-task questions. These will test
consolidations and accounts preparation. The
consolidation question could include a small
amount of interpretation and the accounts
preparation question could be set in the context of
a sole trader or a limited company

SUMMARY OF CHANGES TO F3/FFA
ACCA periodically reviews its qualification syllabuses so that they fully meet the needs of stakeholders including
employers, students, regulatory and advisory bodies and learning providers. These syllabus changes are effective
from February 2014 and thereafter will be updated on 1st September each year, from September 2015 onwards.
F3/FFA is being restructured with effect from February 2014, to introduce longer style questions. The new
examination will consist of two sections. Section A will contain 35 two mark objective questions. Section B will
contain 2 fifteen mark multi-task questions. These will test consolidations and accounts preparation. The
consolidation question could include a small amount of interpretation and the accounts preparation question
could be set in the context of a sole trader or a limited company.

acca备考 热门问题解答
- acca考试怎么搭配科目?
-
建议优先选择相关联的科目进行搭配报考,这样可以提高备考效率,减轻备考压力,1、F1-F4:为随时机考科目,难度较低,这里可以自行随意选择考试顺序。2、F5-F9:如果你的工作的和财务会计或者审计有关、或者你比较擅长财务和审计的话,推荐先考F7和F8。你可以选择一起考ACCA考试科目F7和F8或者先考F7(8)再考F8(7),这就要取决你一次想考几门。3、P阶段:选修科目中,建议企业首选AFM!第二部分科目进行选择,如果AA和SBR掌握学生更好,可以通过选择AAA,如果SBL掌握的好,可以自己选择APM。
