    Hi, i am confused in wether to round off “g” while solving for market values like in a question the real “g” i am getting is 5.02%, but acca has rounded off the growth rate to 5%, because of that there is a slight rounding off errro in the answer.

    I am getting the answer as 9.48 and acca’s answer is 9.45, this is fill in the blanks question…

    So should i round off growth rates every time for MCQ questions ?
    Like if i am getting g = 5.5%, then to write as 6% ??

    In the real exam questions will clearly state requirements of the question
    Part A or B

    Round to 1 decimal
    Or round to a whole number
    Etc….
