CA ANZ Core 1 case studies

Core 1 is the first technical module of the CA Program, the qualification pathway that candidates complete on the way to becoming a Chartered Accountant with Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand. It is designed for graduates who have completed an accredited degree and are now working in accounting or a related role, and it bridges university theory and professional practice. The module's full title signals its breadth: accounting and financial reporting fundamentals sit alongside management accounting, corporate finance, information technology and systems, audit and assurance, taxation fundamentals, business law and ethics, and the professional skills needed to analyse an integrated business case. You should expect a demanding blend of technical knowledge and judgement, with questions that ask you to apply standards and concepts to unfamiliar scenarios rather than simply recall definitions. The CA ANZ Core 1 case studies are 5 cases and about 3,314 words.
