Your brand-new monthly issue of PQ magazine, with all the latest news and views from the accountancy industry, is ready to read!

Check it out at: PQ magazine, December 2024 by PQ magazine – Issuu

Our cover story looks at the launch of the Next Generation ACA, and we drill down into the nitty gritty of what are the biggest changes to the ICAEW qualification in 30 years on pages 20 and 21.

We cover EY sacking staff for taking simultaneous training sessions, why urgent action is needed now to stem finance staff shortages in local government, and AATs new board structure.

And, we also take a look at an ICAEW exam question that has caused consternation!

We have the latest exam pass rates from CIMA and the ICAEW, have tips for the forthcoming ACCA December exams, and take a look at CIMA’s SCS pre-seen.

The professional bodies all give their take on Labour’s first budget in 14 years, and tax guru Dan Neidle provides his assessment of the IHT agricultural property relief changes.

We are also launching the PQ magazine awards 2025 in this issue – these will be our 22nd awards. And, I would like to encourage everyone to enter.

Finally, we asked the question ‘Will accountants…save the planet’ at our inaugural roundtable with partners Rogo, and you can now catch the video at: https://getrogo.com/blog/accountants-will-save-the-planet/.
