a) I think u will have to give as per new syllabus only. new is better if u knw objectives(16mks). Syllabus - Amalgamation, Profit prior to incorporation, Foreign Exch Fluctuation, Personal investment accounting, Capital Reduction (do these 5 compulsory wil be enough to attempt 90% paper)
Other chapters - Redemption of Preference shares(easy), Issue of Shares(easy) & Company final Accounts(not fit to be done).

b) Notes containing brief explanation and then minimum selected questions will be posted on this website later this month... Rest u have put efforts and concentrate on those 5 chapters to clear....
