for isolated bits of a question in any of these exams there are unlikely to be more than just a coupls of marks
which means if someone missed it or did not account for it he missed just 2 marks and nothing more than that?……actually in some past exam questions is have seen tax adjustment and impairment of goodwill and any question related to investment in associate having credit up to 4 marks.
And can you please tell about this mistake that i made in the exam, i accidentally put dividend from associate as it is rather than multiplying it with associate % i did rest of the calculations correctly regarding associate now does this mistake mean mark not being awarded or one can still hope to get half a mark for putting the figure in account at the right place.
When you see 4 or 5 marks for one figure, it’s because there are 4 or 5 element involved in arriving at that figure. If you get four of those elements but miss the fith you should get four out of the five available..thats what my tutor tells us – am just repeating what my tutor keeps telling us. Of curse, she may be wrong but i have to believe what she says.
Wrt the associate, that should only cost you one mark, according to mt tutors thinking. Don’t worry anyway. There’s nothing you can do about it now! Be happy at least till February 🙂
