Anyone could share the questions on today’s ATX exam ?
VVerónicaSupporter1mo ago#2
All I know is that I am still trying to understand what I was supposed to do in question 1 (Irish variant).

Questions for ATX UK version

I also struggled with question 1- incorporating a business and capital allowances as a result. Amma and Ammacom Ltd- disaster!

The Q1 (Amma) was quite rough. The rest wasn't too bad but was disappointed FIG, residency, PE didn't come up

I got Amma for Q1 and also thought it was rough. None of the questions I expected came up, all very niche I thought and what was that ethics question about advertising! I know we’ve studied that before but I expected ethics on a new client, or potential conflict of interest of advising two clients who are connected

Omg same had Amma and Ammacom Ltd for Q1 didn’t even finish it all as I didn’t really know how to answer it and was struggling between the question and the exhibits :( Overall deflated after that

Also agree with the advertising question what the actual hell! I thought if anywhere there was 5 marks I could gain it would have been on the ethics but that actually totally threw me off ??

It was a disaster for me. I wasn't sure what the questions were actually asking or what kind of answers were expected. The Amma and Amma Ltd. questions were particularly confusing and seemed beyond anyone's understanding.

Q1 was so confusing spent ages on it and didn’t understand what they were asking from me for Amma and Ammacom Ltd and the ethics question made no sense and not a typical one I was used to from past papers. For Q2 and Q3 the topics that came up was niche topics and not the typical ones I was expecting as I did a lot of past papers. no rdec or permanent establishment

I also found Q1 on Amma and Ammacomp super confusing, I defintely struggled to answer things on this question as well as areas on some of the other questions. I couldn't believe the ethics question as well, was hoping that I would definetly pick up easy marks on ethics aswell but the advertising bit was just bizarre. Also sad to see nothing on FIG, overseas subs/PE etc, RDEC (as this was asked repeatedly on past papers) Did not feel great coming out that paper

Completely agree - I had same ATX-UK paper variant. Nothing at all on overseas aspects and Question 1 was a nightmare - i too struggled between exhibits. Nothing like past papers or the pre mocks of June and December 2025. Not many sat this paper in my exam venue either...

I found this year's question's surprisingly easier and more familiar than previous years. This is a resit for me, to avoid spending too much time on Q1, worth 50 marks, i started from Q3, then Q2 and then i had about 1 hour and 15ish minutes to focus on Q1. I still didn't have enough time to finish Q1. But i did the 10 mark bit on working out the cost after tax for the employer to last. I was abit unsure of what was meant by this but i presume it means the total cost to the employer. I found the ethics question really easy. Inheritance Tax and Reliefs are abit of weak point for me and i didn't spend enough time revising them. So if i do have to redo this paper (which hopefully in won't) it will be simply because i didn't revise it enough. Good luck everyone!

Anyone remember the question from the UK version ? I can not remember some of section A and B to check how I performed…
CClaire1mo ago#16
I found when I was studying that the 50 mark questions were taking more than twice the length of time to complete than the 25 mark questions, and overall were more difficult and a bit overwhelming. So I had already made the decision to do questions 2 and 3 first, trying to maximise the number of points on those then spend whatever time remained on question 1, aware that I might run out of time. I figured if I did Q1 first the danger would be getting bogged down in it, spending over 2 hours on just that question then doing the remaining 2 questions in a panic. As it happened I managed to get Q2 done in 45 mins and Q3 done in 40 mins, so had 1hr 50 left for Q1, and used up most of that time. I think it was the right tactic. I also found the Amma/Ammacorp question quite tough and wasn't 100% sure what was being asked at all times, especially as the 10 mark part, which was about the employee package, seemed too easy for 10 marks. I'm certain I must have missed the point on that one. Q2 was a group question with a company leaving the group still owning a building which was an intra-group transfer, the capital gains consequences, degrouping charge and SDLT. I think there was a capital goods scheme part to that question as well, or it might have been in another question. Q3 was mostly IHT, I think, with some Agricultural Property Relief and also Residence Nil Rate Band when the estate is worth over 2 million. I wasn't sure on the restriction to RNRB when the person has acquired the RNRB of their deceased spouse, but hope I picked up marks on the rest of it even if that bit was incorrect. I also remember something about EIS IT relief and re-investment relief which may have been part of Q3. It's all a bit of a blur. Fingers crossed.
