By: Philip Martin McCaulay

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

The Conquer the Exam in Under 90 Minutes series is the original audiobook-first CPA exam prep solution. These guides are built for focus and efficiency, helping you master the essentials without wasting time on filler.

What sets this study guide apart is what it is not. It is not a sprawling textbook running hundreds of pages. It is not weighed down with endless practice questions that do not work in audio format. And it is not a generic review with “CPA” in the title but no connection to the actual exam content.

Instead, this guide is a concise, structured review of the Regulation (REG) section of the CPA Exam. It is built directly on the official AICPA Blueprint, ensuring that every chapter matches the content areas actually tested. Coverage includes:

• Ethics, professional responsibilities, and federal tax procedures, including Circular 230, AICPA standards, and penalties
• Business law foundations: contracts, UCC rules, negotiable instruments, secured transactions, and agency law
• Federal taxation of property transactions: basis, depreciation, amortization, capital gains, and losses
• Federal taxation of individuals: gross income, deductions, credits, retirement accounts, and estates
• Federal taxation of entities: C corporations, S corporations, partnerships, and exempt organizations
• Corporate distributions, redemptions, and liquidations
• Supplemental practice examples integrating multiple tested areas to mirror exam-style simulations
• Exam preparation strategies and test-taking techniques for both multiple-choice questions and task-based simulations

If you’ve already invested time and money into preparing — don’t leave success to chance. This concise, targeted review is here to help you pass the REG exam the first time.
