Unlike prior years, I decided to go totally electronic for this year’s seminar.
Everything is contained in PDF files, and I have made it easy for you to print all the materials. I consolidated the PDFs into three HUGE files. You’ll need to buy a BIG binder. This year’s stack of paper clocks in at about 2,100 pages.
I will start updating the 2012 overheads and practice problems for 2013 in December.
Updates
Those pages had the 2011 version of the discussion of prior exam problems. I recreated the file including the identical discussions from the Introduction section of the seminar. I am uploading this file for production into the various formats, and it will be available shortly.
Updates
I made several additions to the EA-2B online seminar. I updated the Introductory overheads and the Multiemployer overheads to include the 2011 exam in the summaries of exam problems by type.
I have added a new section X with the exams and solutions for 2009-2011. I made some corrections to the solutions for all three exams today.
I made corrections to the outline for IRC 4974, 4975 and 4980. Since the change was to IRC 4975 prohibited transaction definitions, I added the outline to the Introduction section of the online seminar.
I added outlines that were missing from the online seminar CD. These were for the 411(d)-3 regulation and the 54.4980F regulation. These outlines are related to IRC 411, so I added them to that section of the online seminar.
Updates
I recently started making the 2012 updates to include the solutions to the 2010 exam problems. It will probably take another week to finish this project.
I made a few minor changes today:
- I updated Vesting Rules – Problem Review F (item E.1.P.F) to include solutions for 2009 exam problems 1 and 2, which were missing.
- I revised my discussion of page 2 of the 401-414 overheads (item A.1.2.A) to clarify the recent syllabus changes that moved IRC 415 and IRC 416 from EA-2A to EA-2B.
- I added part 5 of the IRC 415 discussion (item L.1.5), which I had inadvertently left out.
Updates
I had the wrong file names, so the calculations for Majority Owners B and A (on page 17) were discussed in the wrong order. I recreated the file, and am uploading it for production into the various formats. It will be available shortly.
Updates
A student alerted me that this file would not play on their iPhone. I recreated the file, and now it works properly on my iPhone.
Updates
Several students asked me about printing out all the materials. You should not bother doing that yet – so I have disabled that feature of the online seminar.
As shown on my web site, January 31 is when I send out the EA-2B materials. I’m finalizing the materials to distribute to all of you.
If you purchased the live or online course, you will receive a box with 1,600+ pages of material. In addition, you’ll get a CD-ROM (with PDF files for overheads, outlines and practice problems) in the box.
If you are getting a free-peat of the online course, you will receive a CD-ROM in the mail.
Updates
Something strange happened – somehow had two different audio tracks at once. I recreated the file, and am uploading it for production into the various formats. It will be available shortly.
Updates
I added discussions of the 2009 Multiemployer exam problems in the overheads. I discovered that discussions for several problems were misplaced. I moved the discussion for 2008-15 to the Introductory notes section, and for 2008-13 and 2008-14 to the PBGC Miscellaneous sections.
