big things comes in small packages

Account Account Account.
Sometimes i really think i have nothing to do in life. But nvm, this is part of my studies so..have to get over with it.

AAHhhhhh.... I've never told anything bout my accounts class before rite.

- 80% of the class are girls.
- 99.9% of the class speak only chinese..except me.
- it's not a very big class, maybe round 20 person.
- The Teachers/Lecturers beh-ta-han...not bad not bad..
- 70% of the class have done accounts in high school..

The syllabus are from England. Even examinations, it's an external paper. But because most student in the class are chinese speaking, therefore the lecturer will have to not only explain more, they also did translation to chinese... and some even teach a little in BM to refresh their memory.. But too bad, i have no accounts background...so, leave it!

There are 4 subjects. Accounts is the main one and it's compulsary as the other are optional. Believe it or not, i have 3 different lecturer teaching me accounts. And the other subjects are Advanced Business Calculation (ABC), Costing and Management Accounting, Business Statistic. Talking bout the ABC subject, the lecturer strongly reminds me of Puan Umi (my form 4 add math teacher.) The way he teach...phiew *sweat!! No focus no understanding!

School fees are inclusive of books, revision, tuition fee, extra class, and some other study materials. The exercises given is okay as well. Oh ya, one more thing... i have only 3 hour class everyday! But later will have some extra classes and i'm taking computer classes as well. And i'm taking all 4 subjects and computer during the MAIN EXAM!

One example of my notes given by Lecturer (Costing):-

Direct cost (kos secara langsung): are cost that can be directly charged to a product. Eg, direct materials, direct labour, direct expenses.

Indirect cost (Kos secara tak langsung): are cost that cannot be conveniently changed to a product. Eg, indirect material, indirect labour, indirect expenses.

WHAT IF my brain doesn't have much neutrons and is not active ... how would i know WHAT is DIRECT MATERIALS and how do you define the word INDIRECT EXPENSES.

Better examples please. Thank You.
