Strange accounting

[Azeem Shah Khan]

This year first time in my life I encountered with cost accounting. This is a realy bad experience. I mean there is nothing common in financial and cost accounting except the word "accounting". That's why I called it strange accounting. There is no logic, just 'rata'. My teacher says, "just learn it, don't try to understand or you'll forget financial accounting too."
I don't understand why it is so different from financial accounting.
Its also a problem that how do I understand it or "learn" it.

What is so different about it? I dont seem to understand the difference you are talking about. With due respect to your teacher I worry about him.

Please let me know if I can be of any help.

Thanks Azeem Bhai but papers are gone now
All questions were easy in cost paper but still I did something wrong in two questions (the most easeist questions in the whole b.com - varience and lifo/fifo - please dont laugh!)
Well hope more then 70% at least.

Most students make blunders in the easiest questions so you are not the only one[)] I couldnot even reconcile a bank in my B-Com papers.

Exams are history now, think about the next stage, InshAllah you will clear the papers if your assessment of 70% is reasonable.

Like in anyother accounting, I would suggest you not to think on THEORETICAL basis rather try to see things from a brid's eye view, this will not only assist you understand the topic but it will also help you visualise the practical implementation.

Best of luck!

You are right AZEEM

I remember that whole year I touhgt my friends how to do bank reconciliation but in the last I took balance on wrong side.
Well same thing happend to this year. I even could not revice these topics (LIFO/FIF0 and varience) because I thought they were so easy.
I spent more time on tougher topics but they were solved well.

Over confidence is a funny thing.
In the paper of taxation there was a question about items "not exempted"
and many students answered with exempted items. They were so confident that they didn't see the word "not".
