Who This Pack Is For

This CAP2 SFMA Notes pack is for CAI students who want serious study notes with enough depth to learn the subject and enough structure to revise quickly before the exam.

  • CAP2 students preparing for the October resit window with focused printed notes and instant Reader access.
  • Repeat or resit students who need a clearer route through the subject before the autumn exam window.
  • Students who want concise exam-focused notes instead of broad textbook sprawl.

How To Use These Notes Before The Exam

  • Use the CAP2 SFMA long-form notes first to close technical gaps while preparing for the CAP2 resit.
  • Move into the mastery notes for examiner traps, common weak answers, and the points that usually decide marks.
  • Use Part A for frameworks, route maps, calculation structures, and fast exam recall.

What's inside the pack.

Each ACA Notes module is split into three practical parts. Part C teaches the subject, Part B turns it into exam-ready competency notes, and Part A gives you the tools for final revision and exam execution.

Part C - Long-form Notes

Part C — Learn the subject

Strategic finance, investment appraisal, working capital, sources of finance, cost of capital, capital structure, valuation, M&A, treasury, risk management, costing, budgeting, variances, transfer pricing, and performance are taught as connected business finance and management accounting.

  • Builds the finance and management accounting spine across appraisal, valuation, treasury, costing, budgeting, and performance.
  • Explains formulas through business decisions and interpretation.
  • Connects calculation methods to commercial consequences.
Part B - Mastery Notes

Part B — Turn knowledge into exam judgement

The material is reorganised around exam judgement: selecting the right method, interpreting the result, explaining the business implication, and making recommendations rather than stopping at the calculation.

  • Focuses on method selection, interpretation, and recommendation.
  • Targets the gap between getting a number and explaining what it means.
  • Turns calculations into exam-ready advice.
Part A - Exam Desk

Part A — Execute under exam conditions

The tools focus on calculation and advice execution: formula cards for finance and costing techniques, investment appraisal skeletons, valuation and M&A routes, FX and interest-rate hedge frameworks, working-capital and budgeting structures, variance-analysis routes, and performance recommendation skeletons.

  • Includes formula cards, appraisal skeletons, valuation routes, hedge frameworks, and variance routes.
  • Provides structures for working capital, budgeting, transfer pricing, and performance advice.
  • Supports calculation setup, interpretation, and recommendation writing.

What Students Say

I honestly found FAE Core so hard to get my head around at the start because it covers such a mix of topics. These notes made it all feel a lot more manageable. They helped me tie together strategy, leadership, risk, sustainability and the data side of things in a way that actually stuck.

Rikki T. · FAE Core · Summer 2025

What I liked most was that the notes did not feel overly academic or dragged out. FAE Core can get overwhelming quickly, especially when you are trying to cover things like governance, risk, AI and business strategy all at once. These notes made it much easier to manage.

James B M. · FAE Core · Summer 2025

I used these notes when I was struggling to bring my answers up to FAE standard. They helped me think more commercially and link different parts of the syllabus together instead of treating everything as separate topics. The real world examples were really great too.
