Sample Questions
Question 1
Easy
Under contract law, what is the mailbox rule and when does it apply?
🎉
Correct Answer: D
Solution
D is correct.
The mailbox rule (also called the dispatch rule) provides that an acceptance is effective when dispatched by the offeree through a reasonable or authorized medium of communication, rather than when received by the offeror. This means a contract is formed at the moment of dispatch. The rule applies unless the offeror specifies that acceptance is effective only upon receipt or the offeree sends a rejection before dispatching the acceptance.
Question 2
Medium
How does a throwout rule differ from a throwback rule?
🎉
Correct Answer: C
Solution
C is correct.
Both rules address "nowhere" sales — receipts the seller cannot be taxed on in the destination state. A throwback rule sources those sales back to the origin state by adding them to that state's sales-factor numerator. A throwout rule instead removes those sales from the denominator entirely, mechanically increasing the apportionment percentage in every state where the taxpayer is taxable. Both are state apportionment concepts; neither is federal.
Question 3
Hard
A pass-through entity tax (PTET) regime is designed primarily to:
🎉
Correct Answer: C
Solution
C is correct.
The PTET workaround responds to the federal $10,000 SALT cap on individual itemized deductions. By electing for the partnership or S corporation to pay state income tax at the entity level, the tax becomes a federal deduction at the entity level (reducing federal pass-through income to the owners) — sidestepping the cap that would have applied if the same tax had been paid by individuals. IRS Notice 2020-75 blessed this structure. The PTET does not replace federal Form 1065, change federal classification, or universally eliminate owner-level state filing obligations (most PTET states still require an individual return, often with a credit).

Frequently Asked Questions
How many free CPA REG practice questions does FreeFellow have?
FreeFellow currently offers 1078 free CPA REG practice questions across 5 topics, each with a detailed step-by-step solution. Questions span three difficulty levels and are aligned to the 2026 syllabus. The question bank is updated regularly.
What CPA REG topics are covered?
The questions cover 5 topics: Ethics, Professional Responsibilities and Federal Tax Procedures, Business Law, Federal Taxation of Property Transactions, Federal Taxation of Individuals, Federal Taxation of Entities. Each topic page shows your progress and lets you filter by difficulty level. You can practice by topic to target your weak areas or take mixed-topic practice exams.
Is FreeFellow really free for CPA REG prep, or is there a catch?
No catch. The 70% of CPA REG prep you actually need to pass is free forever: the full question bank of 1078 practice questions, detailed solutions on every question, mixed practice, the formula sheet, and readiness tracking. No trial period, no credit card. The remaining 30% (timed mock exams, flashcards with spaced repetition, performance analytics, and a personalized study plan) unlocks when you become a Fellow.
What does the $59 Fellow tier unlock for CPA REG?
Fellow ($59 per quarter or $149 per year, per track) unlocks four things on top of the free tier: timed mock exams with weighted scoring that match the real exam blueprint, spaced-repetition flashcards built on memory science from cognitive psychology, topic-level practice to drill weak areas, performance analytics broken down by topic and difficulty, and a personalized study plan that adapts to your exam date. Everything else — questions, solutions, lessons — stays free.
How does FreeFellow compare to Becker, Surgent, or Wiley on price?
Traditional CPA REG prep providers charge $200 to $3,500 for a single exam, paid upfront. FreeFellow keeps the question bank, written solutions, and lessons free forever. The optional Fellow tier is $59 per quarter (about 1/20th of what the big providers charge) and adds mock exams, flashcards, analytics, and a study plan. You can pass CPA REG entirely on the free tier.
How should I use FreeFellow to study for CPA REG?
Start with topic-based practice to identify weak areas. As your exam date approaches, switch to timed practice exams under realistic conditions. The free tier gives you everything you need to build mastery; if you want pacing tools (mock exams, analytics, a study plan) and long-term retention aids (spaced-repetition flashcards), become a Fellow.
Is CPA REG a core or discipline section?
CPA REG is one of the three core sections of the CPA exam that all candidates must pass. The other core sections are AUD and FAR. Each section requires a score of 75 to pass (AICPA).
What score do you need to pass the CPA exam?
Each CPA exam section requires a minimum score of 75 on a scale of 0 to 99 (AICPA). The passing score is set by the AICPA and applies uniformly to all sections. All four sections must be passed within an 18-month rolling window from the date of the first passing score.
Can I study for the CPA exam while working full time?
Yes. Most CPA candidates study while working full time, typically dedicating 15-20 hours per week per section. Many candidates take one section at a time, spending 6-8 weeks per section. Most candidates complete all four sections in 6 to 12 months.
