Financial Accounting and Reporting (FAR) CPA Exam Section

The Financial Accounting and Reporting (FAR) CPA Exam section historically has received the lowest pass rates of any CPA Exam section. In fact, CPA candidates often refer to FAR as the most difficult of the CPA Exam. FAR tests your knowledge of the financial accounting standards. In this four-hour exam, you are expected to prove that you have the knowledge and skills that a newly licensed CPA must demonstrate in the financial accounting and reporting frameworks used by business, not-for-profit, and state and local government entities.

How To Pass FAR

To pass FAR, you’ll need to understand the technical financial accounting standards and get comfortable performing accounting math under a time limit. That means really knowing the material and doing a lot of practice quizzes. If that sounds like a challenge, you can appreciate why FAR has the lowest CPA pass rate.
