    Hello, in the FR exam, I think I made a mistake in the calculation of the Net assets, because of which my calculated figures for NCI, Group retained earnings and goodwill are in jeopardy. How many marks may I loose? Though the rest of my sum ( financial statement and the working notes) are correct and are presented properly. Thank you.

    I would consider asking this on the ask the tutor forum if you want a precise answer. Usually you will be able to obtain marks for the various parts of the calculation. Therefore you will not have lost all the marks merely because you made a mistake with part of the calculation. Hope this helps.

    @Dany@3081 – if you look at the marking scheme to the FR Mock Exam in the CBE Platform you will see that marks are only ever lost once – under the “own figure rule” candidates are never penalised because an error flows through to later numbers.
