    I have been looking at the marking scheme and the answers are very specific and detailed for the time avaiable. I have doubts whether I will pass as no time to evaluate the budgetary report in question 3 in detail so just made some points, But marking scheme is 1 mark per point.

    I don’t think the marking scheme is entirely accurate. In Q1 (i) you are required to ‘evaluate’. This involves recognising an aspect of the report and then making a value judgement upon it. Doing that would get you nearer 2 marks than 1 mark (i mark id usually available for the verbs ‘identify’ and ‘list’).

    No-one would have managed 15 separate points on this question.
