Becker Textbook Transition Policy
Textbook Transition Plan
In advance of the launch of the AICPA's CPA Evolution, Becker is transitioning physical textbooks for students:
Physical Textbook Content
- Current Content: Reflects the AICPA’s existing Exam structure (AUD, BEC, FAR, REG), testable through December 15, 2023.
- New Content: Reflects the AICPA’s new CPA Evolution Core (AUD, FAR, REG) + Discipline (BAR, ISC, TCP) model testable beginning January 10, 2024.
Textbook Transition Plan
October 3, 2023 – As previously announced, Becker will release an updated course covering New Content aligned with the AICPA’s revised Core + Disciplines format as part of CPA Evolution.
- On this date, students will also have access to digital textbooks covering New Content.
- On or after October 3, 2023, students can redeem the New Content physical textbooks and the Current Content physical textbooks within the CPA course on the Manage Sections page.
Current Content textbooks will be subject to availability and may experience delayed delivery.
Replacement Textbooks
Becker will offer a discounted price of $50 for physical textbook replacements to anyone who purchased a course before October 3, 2023. For example, if you have already redeemed the 2023 FAR physical textbook and plan to take the FAR Exam in 2024, you should consider ordering a replacement textbook for FAR for $50 so you can study the updated textbook that is aligned with CPA Evolution.
The prices will be discounted for 120 days, until February 3, 2024. This discounted price of $50 includes standard shipping. The cost of a replacement textbook with expedited shipping will be discounted to $95. Replacement physical textbooks can be purchased online at our Replacements & Upgrades page.
On February 4, 2024 – All replacement textbooks will revert to the $125 standard cost.
Thru Oct 2, 2023 | October 3, 2023 – February 3, 2024 |
| $125 Current Content: AUD, FAR, REG | $125 discounted to $50 New Content: AUD, FAR, REG |
| $125 Current Content: BEC Section | $125 discounted to $50 New Content: ISC, BAR, TCP |
BEC Structure Change and Textbooks:
The AICPA is replacing the BEC section of the CPA Exam with three discipline sections, BAR, ISC, TCP.
Any student who has purchased Becker CPA Review before October 3, 2023, and:
- Has not yet redeemed the BEC physical textbook will be eligible to redeem one Discipline section textbook at no additional cost.
- Has redeemed the BEC physical textbook will need to purchase a Discipline section textbook. Becker will provide discounted Discipline textbooks at a cost of $50 (discounted from $125) from October 3, 2023, until February 3, 2024.
