Hi!
Are you using the Get Through Guides Study material for your reference?

No I'm using BPP.

We do not support our competitor materials. This forum is maintained and provided by Get Through Guides free of charge for our customers and other students wanting our help. Please respect this!

Ms AnitaP,my initial question referred to ''sensentivity analysis'' and you asked of me what reference material i use.I answered this question.What does you not supporting competitors material have to do with this question.I'm one of the other students requesting help,therefore I believe I'm eligible to ask a question on any ACCA area.The institution I attend uses BPP and therefore I follow such.What does the book I use have to do with asking a question under the ACCA course line.If the aim is to help students,why deny one of asking a question because of the book I use,I do ACCA like everyone else and the same way someone may not understand and ask a question,I did the same.If this website was so specific for Get Through Guide users only,it should have been maintained with checks(codes,passwords etc) to avoid people like me from using this website and notification on the main page should also indicate this.If you are so adamant about the study material I use,a book should be sponsored to me from Get Through Guide to ensure that I ask questions only after reading this material.I am quite disturbed with this response as it shows the nature of this company,only there for their own interest.

Interesting Response!

I was of the opinion that this forum site was for ACCA students and was not aware that it had restrictions and was only for students using GTG. I base this concern on the message i read above from a Ms Anita P and a Romey16 student.

A question about sensitivity analysis was asked and the reply to that was about study material used.

Correct me if i am incorrect but i am of the opinion that Ms Anita P asked a question for the competiitors name to be mentioned. The student didnt ask any question which referred to study material.
I am subjected to correction so feel free to correct me if i am wrong.

Based on your response Ms Anita P of GTG (location) "Get through guides is free of charge for our customers and other students wanting our help." I am off the opinion that that student is "and other student" wanted get through guides help.

If an ACCA student is using another material cant they ask a question on this forum that they are having difficulty understanding?

How about selling Get through guides in the caribbean so that caribbean students have the opportunity when pursuing the ACCA exam a choice of study materials?
Students around the world do the ACCA exam.

How about sponsering a get through guide material to that student so that he/she can be of an advantage (because i am of the opinion based on your response that this is a great study guide/material for the ACCA course).

What if the student is a self study person or attending a school that uses the competitors material and/or had her/his study text before? *** etc.

Caribbean/West Indian students pursuing ACCA should have the same privileges as others in the UK for example. Do you agree?

It would be a great idea if next time a student asked a question it could be answered and then reference made to the get through guide materials.

Hi All,

It's not that GTG doesn't support students using competitor materials, or GTG supports students using only GTG material. GTG is here to support all the ACCA students.

It's only that GTG won't be able to provide answers of questions from competitor materials or answer queries related to competitor materials. All ACCA students are welcome to the forum and GTG subject experts will try to help them in as many ways as they can.

All the best,
Anita.

Hi

Hi,

I am very sorry to read about the confusion going on about the question you asked.
My heart is sadden at the response.

I am a caribbean student studying ACCA also and it sad that we dont have full time lectures to cover certain gap, but what even worse is when we seek help and is refused.

Your question has generated 8 replies and not one of those replies answered your question. You must be one sad, frustrated, discouraged student but be strong an answer might be on its way.

In life there are things that makes us stronger and i am hoping that you get strength from this.

Persevere! Persevere! Persever!

Hi Guys,

I am really sorry about all of this. I think it was incorrect for our staff to ask you what book you are studying from and I have spoken with the team members concerned, so it does not happen again. You are absolutely right - we are a forum supporting students, from where ever they are, with the problems they have. We will not answer SPECIFIC questions in our competitor's materials, but will answer general questions that you have.

The tutor will be answering your question within the next hour. Please be assured that this was a genuine mistake and we will try to ensure it does not happen again.

Take care and apologies again

Hi Guys,

I am Kevin and the tutor for F9.

Following is the response to your query:

Sensitivity analysis is a method used to estimate the risk of an investment project by evaluating how much the NPV of the project changes when the variables from which it has been calculated change.

Adjusted paybacks and risk adjusted discount rates are different concepts and should not be confused with sensitivity analysis which is altogether different.

Hope this helps !!

Kevin
