    Hi

    I wanted to ask do we get any marks for setting out the P&L or FS proformas at all or is it just for the figures?

    You score NO MARKS AT ALL for proformas!

    Ask yourself this – what’s the point of ACCA awarding marks to someone who can copy out a proforma without being able to derive the figures to put into that proforma?

    Come on! Get real! A half-intelligent monkey can copy out a proforma
