Hello Miss, if an exam question related to an ethical issue, according to the IESBA Code of Ethics , there will be 2 threats arise, for example,self-review, and familiarity threat arises, if we write those two threats and including another threat that not being specific in the code , for example, self-interest with an explanation why its arises, will it consider incorrect?
and if we mention the threat that different from the examiner answer , will it still consider valid?
Thank you.

So anything that can reasonably be inferred including any threat to the fundamental principles which is not a specific scenario in the code (e.g. the review of the interim review scenario we have previously discussed) would be relevant. By reasonably inferred I mean that something must suggest or imply the threat. Answer points which go beyond implication to pure speculation about a different scenario would not be relevant.
