5 months later and results came out. I got 7 distinctions and a grade 1!
I went from a grade 5 to a distinction in poa!! Heartfelt and sheer gratitude to Sir here for creating these videos, rlly breaking it down and explaining from scratch. Thank you Sir!
Those of you who are failing accounts rn, don't worry. You have time. If I can go from a grade 5 to a distinction in only 5-6 months using the content on this channel...You can as well!!
Hey, Alkar :) That is amazing!!! Congrats on your grade 1! You worked hard and deserve your success! I'm happy to know that you found my videos helpful.
Keep up the good work and best of luck in the future!
@@adapttuition tysm Sir! :)
Congrats, God bless you❤💯
I literally write poa in 3 weeks time and my foundation is not there for the subject hopefully these videos help .... btw they do
Wishing you all the best 😊
Ideally you should have a foundation but sometimes when the exam comes you can skate by with knowing the later topics.
But recently the topics on the paper have been all over the place.
So do what you can and give it your best effort!
ever since online classes came into fusion especially at the beginning of form 4, I never really understood poa. it was like that for almost 2 years....now I can confidently say I am understanding the basics and foundations a lot better. Thanks Sir
I'm working hard to do well come May 9th 😤 and I know I will do well with your help Sir :)

I personally recommend your tutorials. I will appreciate if you can make a video on balance sheet with accrued, prepaid and depreciation
Thanks very much! I really appreciate that 😊
Guess what!
I am currently editing that exact video you mentioned.
It will contain accrued and prepaid revenues and expenses, the provision for bad debts and the current liability section
A separate video will be done on the non-current asset section which will deal with depreciation.
😊
@@adapttuition WOW 😳 🙏 I'm grateful. Stay blessed
You too! Thanks 😊

Yeh, sometimes the way a teacher communicates isn't necessarily understood by all students.
So it's good to have other sources of info :)
Big up you sir on me getting my 2🙏🏾🙏🏾🥳
Congrats on your achievement! You worked hard and proved what consistent effort can do. Never forget that, and never give up :)
Lemme try working this and then will tell you if I got it. However, your video is very help, easy to understand. Thank you🙏
Did it work?
@@adapttuition yes it work but now I have a question with sales and drawings, I have no clue where those go
Sales is a revenue and goes in the income statement (as the first item) and not in the balance sheet.
If you look at the balance sheet videos in the playlist you’ll see that I dealt with drawings and where it goes.
@@adapttuition okay lemme go check for the one dealing with drawings. Basically I should jus leave out the sales
Sales is for the income statement, not the balance sheet. In the income statement we calculate net profit/loss which makes its way to the balance sheet.
The video dealing with drawings in the balance sheet also shows this.
thank you at least now i know how to prepare abalanced sheet ,, i didn't know that it is supposed to balance all the time
is it okay if i try out some numbers i send them to you
Hi! Happy to hear that you understand the concept now 😊
nice vid
Thanks for watching 😊
Let me know if you have any questions
Im learning it so much easier than i did at school an im wondering if u also do principle of business
Hi Shania :)
Happy to hear that you're finding the videos easy to understand.
I don't have many PoB videos as I'm more interested in PoA, Maths, & Add Maths and my content is geared mainly toward those subjects.
@@adapttuition thank you an ill be checking out ur maths videos next
Hope you find them helpful 😊
Sir, so I did this mock exam however it had only 2 columns for us to utilize not 3 as you've shown in the working capital example. Can you help me out with that, please?
Hi, I'll see what I can do. I'm supposed to take a break from video making for a bit to focus on my exam classes but I'll see if I can squeeze in this one.
Please help me on how to treat interest in capital and drawing in the income statement
Hi :-)
You should check the videos in this playlist
ua-cam.com/play/PL9u_QIMhElluUfYtC6xoM73R2UVPOQNTS.html
Specifically the appropriation account video
I was told that format is what cxc really marks for I'm nervous
Hi Tishauna :) If the question asks you for a specific format and you don't follow the instructions then you won't get the maximum marks possible.
However, if the question doesn't specify the format you are free to use any format you know.
I would always recommend the vertical format as opposed to the horizontal format.
And, of course it's either going to be in order of permanence or liquidity.
What they are really looking for is if you can classify the assets and liabilities correctly.
As in, you put each type of item in the correct section.
Current assets in the current assets section
Non-current assets in the non-current assets section.
Current liabilities in the current liabilities section.
Non-current liabilities in the non-current liabilities section.
And, deal with the capital calculations correctly.
So practice as many as you can but don't panic.
You got this :)
Do you have a video on ledgers and t accounts?
I have videos on double entry and those show a lot of t-accounts
What about if the question ask extract a balance sheet showing only the Capital and Liabilities?
Sure, you can do just those two sections only.
Unless they specify how to present it (permanence or liquidity) you are free to use either method.
Hi there, do you mind making a video on the cash Flow Statement
Hi! I’d love to but I have a list of topics I’m working my way through and that one is unfortunately quite a way down.
Sorry about that
@@adapttuition hey sir, are you going to do a break down of the retained earnings statement?
Hi! That’s on the to-do list but not near the top unfortunately.
A statement of retained earnings sort of resembles the appropriation account
You start with the balance at start, add net profit for the period, subtract dividends and transfers and then you get your closing balance
There are other details but I don’t think they apply at the CAPE level.
@@adapttuition Ok, Thank you. That explanation really helps!!
Happy to be of service
I would always recommend further research to see what you find.
Online and textbooks, from multiple sources.
Can you balance sheet with net book value and accumulated depreciation
Hi 😊
There’s a video in this balance sheet playlist that covers that.
Here’s the link Balance Sheets | Statement of Financial Position | Depreciation & Non-current assets
ua-cam.com/video/KtnZ4TVM5NY/v-deo.html
Plz do a video on suspence accounts
Already done 😊
ua-cam.com/play/PL9u_QIMhEllvNgNs2TjcOHjARtfMe5VVN.html
How do you know what something is financed by?
Hi, the business needs assets/resources.
These need to be financed, i.e. paid for.
The money to pay for them comes from two possible sources:
- the owner via capital, and
- creditors via liabilities.
Hence the accounting equation: Assets = Capital + Liabilities
The balance sheet can be presented in different ways to show this.
You can present the assets on top and then show the capital and liabilities below.
Or you can use the net asset presentation which shows assets - liabilities on top and capital below.
Hope that helps.
My teacher taught me that I should have current liabilities first, non current liabilities second and the capital last. Will CXC mark me down to follow his format?
Hi 😊
There is no one right format for a balance sheet
There are several acceptable formats
If however the question asks for a specific format and you do not give it then you will not get full marks.
You will be given marks for whatever you have that is correct.
Ok thanks
Happy to help
How can you handle depreciation in a financial statement
Hi Rehema, you can check out this first link to see how to handle depreciation in the income statement - ua-cam.com/video/R1qunr3MoCo/v-deo.html
And, you can check out this link for depreciation in the balance sheet - ua-cam.com/video/KtnZ4TVM5NY/v-deo.html
can we get the solved example of balance sheet that includes adjustments ,kindly answer me brother
Hi! If you check out the entire balance sheet playlist you’ll find other videos that might help with your request.
Poa is tm an i really need help rn
Hey Kevin 😊
So, my channel has 16 years worth of past paper questions and many tutorials teaching topics from scratch.
Take your time and go through them.
But pace yourself, don’t go all night as you need sleep.
sir but doesn't a balance sheet has net book value and accumulated depreciation?
Not all the time, it depends on the level that the students are at.
Uhhh😩, so I used the format in the textbook b4 u explained the different methods and got the capital in ur trial balance for 1000000😑. I paused the video and tried it b4. I comprehend that u said there are more than one way to do it but now I'm discombobulated. Like which method is accurate during the exams. I'm currently self tutoring using the textbook(principal of accounts for the Caribbean) and wasn't aware of the change in definition. I'm watching ur videos as guidance. So what else has changed? Are these methods now mandatory and the old method obsolete? Help☺️
😄 as I said in the video and as you said in your comment there is more than one way to do a balance sheet.
The underlying concept of what the balance sheet communicates does not change.
If the question doesn’t specify a particular format then use anyone you wish.
If they do specify a format then you need to use that one.
Unless the formats in the textbook are the horizontal format (left and right split instead of top and bottom like in the video) then they’re not obsolete.
@@adapttuition kool
29:01 you say it’s order of permanence but current liability came before non current here, I don’t understand
Hi, this is the format that shows working capital (current assets - current liabilities) which is something that they can specifically ask for.
The non-current assets are before the current assets and on the lower half of the balance sheet the capital is before the non-current liabilities.
Hope that helps.
You are really good sir, please I have a more complex question I want you to explain to me
Hi Davidson 😊
Happy to hear that you’re enjoying the content.
Right now I’m focusing on my family as both my wife and stepson are ill and we also have a 3 month old baby in the house.
So I can’t promise that I’ll have time right now to assist.
Sorry 😕
I hope you are able to find some help though.
@@adapttuition but I saw a question that has legal and professional expense
Expenses incurred go in the income statement
But additional info says legal and prof expense include solicitors fee for purchase of new freehold land during the year
And is even the confusion
sir i not seeing d balance sheet handout on your site, is it free?
Once it’s on the website it’s free to download.
I’ll have a look but I’m now gonna start a class so it’ll have to be later
@@adapttuition ok no probs
sir for Balance sheet my teacher says the capital must go last cause that is the end result im confused
Hi 😊
There are different layouts for the balance sheet
They are all based on some version of the accounting equation (also called the balance sheet equation)
Assets = Capital + Liabilities
Or
Assets - Liabilities = Capital
Some questions only give you assets and liabilities and that will necessitate having capital last as you will need to find it.
In other cases you will have capital and then you are more or less free to use whichever layout you want.
There are multiple ways to present a balance sheet.
Hope this helps
@@adapttuition ok thank u so much sir
You’re very welcome!
i did not know that capital does be before d liabilities in order of permanence
Yes :) Capital is more permanent than liabilities. The owners "sink" their investment into the business and take out profits as a way to reward themselves/pay themselves back. So their investment stays, but they reap the rewards.
The liabilities have to be repaid, principal and interest.
