Future candidates can use this examiner’s report as part of their exam preparation, attempting question practice on the ACCA Practice Platform and reviewing the published answers alongside this report.  \nFormat of the exam  \nThe examination comprised two sections, A and B. Section A consisted of one compulsory question for 50 marks in total. Section B consisted of two compulsory questions for 25 marks each. 10 professional skills marks were available within Section A for communication, analysis and evaluation (A&E), scepticism and commercial acumen. In Section B there are 5 professional skills (P) marks in each question from at least two of analysis and evaluation, scepticism and commercial acumen.  \nSection A  \nQuestion 1 – Kampai Co  \nFormat of the question  \nKampai Co was drawn from sections A and C of the syllabus, mainly covering mergersand acquisitions and the ethical and sustainability issues associated with a potential takeover. This scenario is broadly similar in complexity to previous questions from the same syllabus areas that have been examined in the past. The six requirements of this question tested the ability of candidates to undertake several detailed calculations and to discuss associated issues relevant to the scenario of the question.  \nExam technique and time management  \nKampai Co is worth 50 marks which translates into 90 minutes for candidates to spend on this question. Candidates should read the question thoroughly to become familiar with the scenario and then plan their time carefully in order to address the specific issues in the question and gain maximum marks for each requirement. Candidates must then plan their answer to enable them to have the opportunity to gain maximum marks for each section. Candidates should ensure they address the requirement in the time allotted and avoid unnecessary detail such as copying the facts from the scenario. Marks are not allocated for information which is repeated from the scenario without any analysis or evaluation.  \nScenario and requirements  \nThis question was about a large, listed company (Kampai Co) involved in the production of machinery for the logistics industry. The company had been growing by undertaking acquisitions of competitor companies and had made initial enquiries about acquiring Skal Co, a large, unlisted company.  \nThe requirement of this question was to prepare a report. Within the report there were six requirements. The first three of these requirements were calculative. Initially candidates had to calculate the price-to-earnings ratio of Kampai Co and then use this to calculate the additional equity value generated from the acquisition. The next two requirements asked candidates to estimate the percentage gain in shareholder wealth for both the Kampai Co and Skal Co shareholders, given the proposed cash offer and the proposed share-for-share offer. Additionally, candidates also needed to estimate the number of Kampai","cbCaik3JEOxh9TKv","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaik3JEOxh9TKv","pdf",414034,"English","# General comments\n## Format of the exam\n# Question 1 – Kampai Co\n## Format of the question\n## Exam technique and time management\n## Scenario and requirements\n## General comments","[{\"question\":\"How should candidates use this AFM examiner’s report when preparing for the exam?\",\"answer\":\"Use it alongside the published March/June 2025 sample exam on the ACCA Practice Platform.
