    Do we lose marks if we abbreviate words on the Statement of Financial Positions ?

    No, but you’ll lose precious time if you waste your efforts writing out the words in full!

    The exam is testing your accounting / financial reporting skills, not your ability to write “Intangible Non-Current Assets” or “Statement of Financial Position”

    INCA and SoFP are totally adequate (and they were just examples! There are loads of others to be abbreviated)
