best option available is to go through past question papers and their answers provided.

I think that the TEXT books are merely contributing to 50% in solving the case study questions & the rest is mystery..

What I have been told is that a there are no definitive answers, if you make an intelligent argument you will get the marks, that's what I mean by common sense.

the business knowledge and experience comes from reading widely from a quality newspaper and the experience only really comes from working I guess. However many people pass this paper and don't work so the intelligent argument and wide reading should see you through.

I still believe the only way to get through any ACCA exam is to do lots of question practice where, if you audit the answers, you will see what I mean,
