What D555 is really about

Advanced Financial Accounting II builds on Advanced Financial Accounting I. It covers foreign currency transactions and hedging, translation and remeasurement of foreign currency financial statements, annual and interim reporting including segments, reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and partnership formation, operation, changes in ownership and liquidation.

Exam items test whether students can choose the right method before calculating. A foreign subsidiary's statements are translated with the current rate method when its functional currency is local, but remeasured with the temporal method when it is the parent's currency, and the resulting differences go to different places. Hedging questions ask how a forward contract offsets a receivable. Partnership questions ask how income is allocated with salaries and interest on capital, or how a new partner's bonus is computed. Working each method on a small example first, then on exam-style problems, is the most effective approach. Interim reporting items ask how an annual expense such as property tax is spread across quarters, and segment items ask which operating segments must be reported separately under the quantitative thresholds. SEC items test which forms, such as the annual 10-K and quarterly 10-Q, carry which information.

What D555’s tasks ask for

D555 is measured through an objective exam on foreign currency transactions, hedges, translation and remeasurement, segment and interim reporting, SEC reporting and partnership accounting.

Why D555 tasks come back for revision

Students frequently apply the wrong method to foreign statements or send the translation adjustment to income instead of other comprehensive income. In partnerships, losses come from allocating income before salaries and interest, and from confusing the bonus and goodwill methods for admitting a partner. A one-line rule for where each adjustment goes, written beside every practice problem, reduces these errors.
