CA PCC - Inputs for exams - Paper 2 – Auditing & Assurance

Hi Frenz,

I'm just putting down the points that my friend Poonam followed for the CA - PCC exams. The books referred in the note below need not necessarily be followed. You can always follow other books.

PAPER - 2 – Auditing & Assurance

1.Padhuka publications will suffice for examinations. ABC analysis in Padhuka will be
useful.

2. If you have attended the class, please go through the class notes first and then read the book.

3. The pattern of the question paper is as follows:

(a) State with reasons (10/12 * 2m) = 20 marks
(b) Comment as an auditor = 20 marks
(c) Theory question = 10 marks
(d) Theory question = 10 marks
(e) Theory question = 10 marks
(f) Theory question = 10 marks
(g) How will you vouch (2 * 5) = 10 marks
(h) Short notes (2 * 5) = 10 marks

4. In items (g) and (h), please note the internal choice given properly.

5. Be thorough with the Auditing Standards.

6. Write the answer in points as it will fetch you good marks.

7. Please go through the RTP prescribed for your attempt, as sometimes the exam
problem is one of the RTP questions.

8. Time will not be a constraint.

9. Do not give lengthy answers but be brief and to the point.

10. In question no. (b), use the pattern where your answer clearly distinguishes:

 The facts of the case
 The provisions of the law
 Analysis of the case
 Conclusion

This will definitely fetch you more marks.

11. In question no. (g), if Notice is given, there can be some common points which will be verified in all the items. So while preparing, just make a separate list of verification items which are common in all. This will definitely help.

12. Just 2 months before the exams Mr. Ganapathi will discuss the important topics for the relevant attempt. At least 50% of the questions in exams are from his important questions. So check out with people who have attended the latest batch of his classes..


Further Suggestions / Inputs / Comments are invited.

Thank You.
