CA Inter Cost RTP & Case Scenario
RTP + Case Scenario Booklet — Both Fully Mapped for Revision
86 questions, one topic-wise map — built for the last week before the exam
Paper 4 revision usually means two separate documents: the September 2026 RTP (16 questions) and ICAI's Booklet on Case Scenarios (70 case scenarios, 300 pages). Both are dense with numbers and thin on the one thing that actually costs marks — the specific rule or classification trap buried inside each question. These two concept maps pull that trap out of every single question in both documents and group it by topic, so a week of solving becomes an evening of targeted revision.
What this is
Two documents. The RTP map goes question-by-question through all 16 questions of the Sept 2026 RTP — overhead distribution, ABC vs conventional costing, EOQ, incentive schemes, cost sheets, process costing, budgets, standard costing variances, and marginal costing — and states the exact rule each one is testing. The Case Scenario map does the same for all 70 scenarios in the ICAI booklet, but re-organised by topic (Material Cost, Labour, Overheads, Process Costing, Joint Products, Standard Costing, Marginal Costing, Budgets, Service Costing, Relevant Costing) instead of scenario order, so you revise a concept once across every scenario that tests it. Each point is tagged with its case scenario number for quick lookup.

How to use it
- Solve first, check second. Attempt the RTP and the booklet cold — these notes confirm you caught the trap, they don't replace working the numbers.
- Revise topic-wise, not source-wise. Read the Overheads section, or the Process Costing section, straight through and see the same rule tested five different ways across scenarios you solved weeks apart.
- Use the [CSn] tag to go back. Whenever a point feels unfamiliar, reopen that exact case scenario in the booklet and re-work it in full.
