在考官的综合评价中我们可以看到在2013年6月份考试中,考生暴露出来的问题以及考官提供给考生们的建议,在学员们引起注意的同时,现在再来分享一下考官对于某些题目的具体分析以及提出的建议。
‘Question Two
There were three main problems with answers. Firstly, by far the biggest issue was that candidates simply made no attempt to answer the requirement given. They didn’t write any objectives or performance measures at all, they simply wrote pages and pages of words about the company, discussing how it was performing and the issues it faced. This was really disappointing. When candidates did answer the requirement, they often did a really good job of it ‘.

学员们可以很清晰地看到,在这里考官非常失望的看到了一种现象,那就是考生们所答非所问的情况实在是太严重了,但是,如果能够答道点子上的考生,还是能把答案做得非常好,这样就好似暴露出来一个两极分化的现象。考官在判卷子的时候,停留在一份卷子上的时间不会超过10分钟,如果前后判了两份差异化很大的卷子,那自然分数的差异也会分大。
所以,学员们在这里一定要注意,在作答的时候,审题是第一位的。在审题的过程中,光读完一遍的效果是很不好的,建议大家可以在试卷上做一些笔记,比如在知识点上写一些相关联的,题干中包含的知识点,这样在作答的时候不会下笔千言,离题万里了。
'Question Four
This was a variance question which included some of the trickier variances for sales quantity and sales mix.
Apart from using contribution rather than profit to work out the variances, quite a few candidates had calculated their variances using selling prices rather than profit margins.
Finally, another common error was to calculate the sales volume variance rather than the sales quantity variance.
This is an error in understanding, since the sales volume variance is the total variance which breaks down into its two component parts of sales mix and sales quantity. '

从第四道题中暴露的问题是考生们对差异性分析中的概念理解薄弱,在计算中,公式不能正确运用等。
在F5的考试中,几乎每次考试都会考到差异性分析(Variance analysis)的题目,而有关差异性分析的公式总共就可以分类两类,一个是量差一个是价差,无论怎样出题,也全是这两个出发点。所以学员们一定要注意,在复习的过程中,从最基础的量差和价差分析到后面融入有idle time等信息的差异性分析,一定要记住公式的格式和对应用到的数据,建议学员们用课上朱老师提供的坐标记忆法来记住,在量差的时候应该怎样计算,在价差的时候应该怎样计算。
