    I would like to know in exam what extent we can use abbreviation
    for example in the kaplan text they have used
    Abbreviation like
    AIA for Annual investment allowance
    FYA for first year allowance
    TWDV for tax written down value

    my doubt is are these abbreviations allowed
    and i would like to know what is actually not allowed

    where is the line we cross for not using abbreviation
    its obvious we cant make our own abbreviation

    just a general doubt as it will make a difference in typing speed
    and in some cases make the completion of a paper possible or not for those with a bit of slow typing speed
    just because we have to think and type as fast as possible

    Hope you can answer this question as this will be the concern with a lot of individual facing time issues

    It is only in Section C that workings are presented in your answers and as most questions are computational then the abbreviations that you see used in the answers to past exam questions shown in your revision kit and in the ACCA technical articles – for example the ones you list – may indeed be used.
