Recurring theory questions on past exams

Here's a few i've found appear often so it might be wise to go over them if you don't understand them (no guarantee they'll be on though)

-Explain what is met by the term 'net realisable value'
-Explain the difference between product and period costs with examples
-Aside from ___, state two other benchmarks that could be used
-With reference to an accounting principle, discuss why the business records stock writedowns
-Benefits of using budgeted statements
-explain how a profit or a loss occurs on the disposal of a non-current asset
-Define liquidity

Post other ones youve noticed

Am I the only one who thinks unit 4 in terms of theory is somewhat narrow? excluding the ratio analysis of course. i keep seeing the same things over and over and over

Rumors are going around that there will be a question relating to a going concern

and on another note, a 17 mark stock card which includes the withdrawal of non-current assets such as loans
