Accounting and Auditing as Optional Subject
 

@Mubashira Khanum
confused for opting accounts audit and taxation as a single subject coz i havent studied taxation,what do u suggest if it is easy to prepae with my knowledge of accounts and finanace.

In my opinion, you must opt Accounting and Audit, because of following reason
> its among top scoring subject
> Syllabus is smiler to BBA if except TAX
> Taxation: Read Tax as per syllabus and [B]Learn how to Calculate Taxable Income[/B],
> for Tax I have read (sections provided in Syllabus from only 1 book) Synopsis of Tax by Munawar Hussain.

Good luck

Isn't there a single book?
 

Well i have studied Meigs n Meigs along with Frankwood and I think they are real popular books of accounting. While going through the syllabus I find all the topics familiar and feel like I have covered them in different ACCA exams. I just want to ask you guys isn't there any single book covering all the topics from syllabus. Moreover there is always question of USA and UK standards and obviously there are local standards.

Meigs n Meigs and Frankwood
 

@ms.bushra

you are absolutely right to rank Meigs n Meigs and Frankwood, realy they are very popular books for Accounting specially Meigs, being a student of ICMAP "it is said to be bible of accounting".

Personally I prepared myself form these books + Matz & uzry for Cost Accounting + synopsis of Tax for Taxation. and I felt CSS Accounting papers very easy, lets see the result.

@usman
 

Well do tell me about the results since I still have to attempt. I think will prefer to study from the books I have already gone through. From the syllabus I find Taxation a hell boring. I opted for local variant of taxation in ACCA and it made me to go through countless attempts. :D

I think Pakistani taxation system is easier and simple as compared to UK system since they are not in habit of changing rules then and often and they have devised all the details for the system. Still passing rate in local taxation is quite low as compared to UK. This may be because of the local examiner's approach. They are in habit of giving students tough time.

can anyone tell me that solved papers(previous) of accounting is available in market.
