Regulators around the


world also recognize the value of the CFA charter. Nearly all U.S. state
securities commissions grant CFA charterholders an exemption to
their licensing exams for investment advisers. The NYSE and FINRA
provide an exemption from the analytical portion (Series 86) of the
Research Analyst Qualification Exam (Series 86/87) for certain
applicants who have passed Level II of the CFA exam. Additionally,
regulators in Australia, Canada, Greece, Hong Kong, Singapore,
Turkey, and Vietnam accept the CFA designation as meeting their
licensing or qualification requirements. In Indonesia, Pakistan, the
Philippines, and Thailand, passing a certain level of the CFA exam is
required to practice in the jurisdiction.

For example, if your reported score band is 1, you scored in
approximately the bottom 10% of failed candidates. If your
reported score band is 2, your score was within the next band
width ranging from approximately the bottom 11% to 20% of
failed candidates. If your score band is reported as 10, you
scored in the top 10% of all failed candidates.

Sample Question (L1)

In the USA, it is common practice to amortize goodwill over 40 years, and the
amortization expense is charged to income. In some other countries, goodwill is
amortized over five years, and is charged directly to shareholders equity.
Under this circumstance, a USA firms ratio relative to the non-USA firms
ratios would typically be as follows (assuming all other factors are equal and
ignoring the effect of income taxes):
Return on Equity
A.
Neutral
B.
Higher
C.
Lower
D.
Lower

Profit Margin
Lower
Higher
Lower
Neutral
