Perdisco MYOB practice set

Students are required to complete an online MYOB practice set that will count towards the overall assessment mark for this unit. Through the completion of one month accounting cycle for a fictional business, you will gain experience in the practical and technical skills essential to accounting with the MYOB software.

The practice set provides each student with a unique accounting scenario and therefore must be completed on an individual basis. The practice set is a large activity, taking up to 20 study hours to complete over a number of days or weeks. Please ensure you leave yourself enough time to complete this activity before its submission deadline (5pm, 23 January). Each student has two attempts on this assessment and the highest score will be recorded as the final score. There is a milestone requirement for this assessment. You are required to complete at least 50% of the assessment by 5pm, 19 December. Once you have fulfilled the milestone requirement by the 19th December, you are able to obtain 25% of the assessment which is 5% of the total assessment requirements for this subject. The milestone is graded as follows:

- obtained a score of at least 60% of the subtotal score (completed at least 50% of the final score of 409 marks), a full mark (5/5) will be awarded

- obtained a score of between 50% to 60% of the subtotal score ( completed at least 50% of the final score of 409 marks), a mark of 4/5 will be awarded

- obtained a score that is less than 50% of the subtotal score (completed at least 50% of the final score of 409 marks), a mark of 3/5 will be awarded

- completed less than 50% of the assessment by 5pm, 19 December, a mark of zero will be awarded

Answers to the practice set are submitted online. However, it is possible to print each page of the practice set in order to work on it offline. Once each page has been submitted, you will be provided with immediate feedback on your performance.

The online practice set is available from within your Perdisco account. To access the practice set, please:
1. Create an account at www.perdisco.com.au/myobLogin
2. Once registered, click ‘Add a product to my account'
3. Select your course from the available options (make sure that you select ACC1AIS)
4. Click ‘How do I pay?' for the payment options available.

Payment can be made by online credit card or PayPal. Payment instructions are provided after registration.

When you login to your practice set, you will see a Student Companion and Helpful Hints document on your practice set home page. Please read this document because it gives you information that will help you to successfully complete the practice set. To complete this practice set, you will also need access to the MYOB software (please check which version of MYOB your practice set is written for and use the correct version). This software is separate to the practice set itself and, if you have access to MYOB by other means, you are not required to purchase it from Perdisco. Please note that MYOB has designed its software to run only on Windows operating systems.

If you do not have your own access, instructions on downloading and installing MYOB are also provided at

www.perdisco.com.au/myobLogin

As you work through the practice set, you will also notice links to the ‘MYOB Learning Centre'. This online resource provides you with support on using MYOB and you are strongly encouraged to refer to it as you complete your practice set.

In the interest of student access and equity, virtual ‘library copies' of the practice set are provided through an Electronic Special Reserve (ESR) service on the Perdisco website. Like library books, they are limited by available hours and the number of simultaneous users. To access ESR, please create your Perdisco account and add the practice set, then click the ESR login link. You can also read more information about ESR by clicking the ESR info link. A tip for using ESR is to avoid leaving your work until the last minute when demand for ESR copies of the practice set is likely to be high.
