Sample ACCA Applied Knowledge Practice Questions
Try these questions from our free ACCA Applied Knowledge practice tests. The correct answer and an explanation follow each question.
Under IAS 10 Events After the Reporting Period, which of the following is an adjusting event?
- A. A major fire destroys a warehouse after the reporting date
- B. The settlement after the reporting date of a court case that confirms an obligation existed at the reporting date
- C. A decline in market value of investments after the reporting date
- D. The announcement of a major acquisition after the reporting date
Answer: B. The settlement after the reporting date of a court case that confirms an obligation existed at the reporting date
An adjusting event provides evidence of conditions that existed at the reporting date. Settlement of a court case confirms a liability that existed at year end, so the financial statements should be adjusted. The other events are non-adjusting — they relate to conditions arising after the reporting date.
A production overhead absorption rate (OAR) is typically calculated as:
- A. Actual overhead ÷ Actual activity
- B. Budgeted overhead ÷ Budgeted activity
- C. Actual overhead ÷ Budgeted activity
- D. Budgeted overhead ÷ Actual activity
Answer: B. Budgeted overhead ÷ Budgeted activity
The OAR is set at the start of the period using budgeted figures: Budgeted overhead ÷ Budgeted activity level (e.g., machine hours or labour hours).
The fixed overhead expenditure variance compares:
- A. Actual fixed overheads with absorbed fixed overheads
- B. Budgeted fixed overheads with actual fixed overheads
- C. Standard fixed overheads per unit with variable overheads per unit
- D. Absorbed overheads with the budgeted production volume
Answer: B. Budgeted fixed overheads with actual fixed overheads
Fixed overhead expenditure variance = Budgeted fixed overheads – Actual fixed overheads, showing whether spending on fixed costs was more or less than planned.
Zero-based budgeting (ZBB) requires managers to:
- A. Simply adjust last year's budget by an inflation percentage
- B. Justify every item of expenditure from a zero base for each new period
- C. Only budget for new projects and ignore ongoing activities
- D. Set all budgets at zero and wait for actual costs to emerge
Answer: B. Justify every item of expenditure from a zero base for each new period
ZBB starts from scratch each budget period. Every activity and its associated costs must be justified as if it were new, rather than simply rolling forward last year's figures. This helps identify and eliminate unnecessary spending.
