Polytechnic / University Accounting Crash Courses

COMMON ISSUES

  1. You did not learn POA Previously
    The pace of teaching is much faster in poly and university. Even those who had learnt POA previously find it tough. You fear that your inexperience will pull down your grades. Afterall, you have one chance to take the paper.Mr Chong has the shortcuts to master POA. He is self-taught. His methods are original and intuitive.
  2. What You Learnt Previously is Different
    The accounting treatment for certain items may be different under different syllabus.  What you learnt in Secondary School can be different in your new school.Example : Prepayments and Accruals.
    Under most polytechnic accounting syllabus, all expenditures are treated as prepaid assets. Only the amount used is charged to the Income Statement. Under O Level syllabus, the reverse is done.When we are in Rome, we do what the Romans do. Your answer must follow the method prescribed by the lecturer. No deviation permitted.You need not memorise. Mr Chong will provide the reconciliation.
  3. Lack of Worked Solutions
    Most polytechnics and universities (except UOL) do not provide worked solutions for past year exam questions. At best, only the final answer is given. Many are unsure if they got the right answer.Mr Chong has taught numerous students from polytechnics and university. If you are lucky, you get the answers without spending the long hours working them out.
