Let’s assume I’m doing a adjustment of trading income and I added a figure I was suppose to minus and with that figure I worked out and income tax payable figure and balancing payment or payment on account. Would I lose all the marks from when I made the error or would I get some of the marks because I used the proper procedure but wrong figures ?
The markers will always attempt to award “follow through” marks so that you are only penalised once for an error. This is why the structure and presentation of your answer showing all workings is so important to enable markers to identify that what you have gone on to show in your answer is correct in principle.
