This free Florida Business & Finance study guide covers all 6 official DBPR content areas, with the correct answer highlighted and a plain-English explanation on every question. The first 2 content areas are open — no account needed. Full access unlocks all 120 questions.
This is a complete Florida Contractors Business & Finance study guide for the DBPR exam — organized exactly like the state blueprint, by content area, with the correct answer and a written explanation on every question. Because the exam is open book, each explanation also points to the reference where the answer lives, so you learn the material and where to find it at the same time.
The exam is 120 multiple-choice questions, 6.5 hours, open book, and you need 70% to pass. Business & Finance is required for almost every Florida construction license, so the time you invest here pays off across the whole industry.
Every question maps to one of the six official content areas, weighted the way the real exam is. The two areas that decide the most pass/fail outcomes are:
Work one content area at a time. Read the question, answer it before you look, then read the explanation — even when you were right. When an area feels solid, switch to the practice test for recall, drill reference speed in the Open-Book Finder, then prove it under time with the 120-question timed simulation.
The first two content areas are free with no account. Full access unlocks all 6 areas and 120 explained questions. The guide prepares you for the exam — licensure also requires meeting the DBPR's experience, financial, and insurance requirements.
Yes — the first two content areas are completely free with no account. Full access unlocks all 6 areas and 120 questions, each with a written explanation and a reference pointer.
Yes. Every explanation names the approved reference (Florida Contractor’s Manual, Builder’s Guide to Accounting, AIA, or the relevant statute) so you learn where each answer lives — and the Open-Book Finder drills that skill against a timer.
By the six official DBPR content areas, in the same weighting as the state exam, so you can study one topic at a time with the correct answer and explanation on every question.
Accounting Functions (32%) and Administrative Duties (26%) together are well over half the exam — spend the most time there.
