I sat the Tax exam yesterday and when answering Section C questions I put a £ in each cell instead of just putting one £ at the top of the column and numbers below.
Does anyone know if I will lose marks for this?
Thanks
Zach
Hi Zach,
I don’t think you can lose marks for something like this. I didn’t use any currency symbols in the section C questions of my Taxation exam yesterday (I never used them in my practice questions, and when I got these marked by my tutor I didn’t lose marks).
As far as I am aware, the ACCA markers are only interested in the figures, they aren’t going to be particular about where/if you use the £ sign.
I am interested to hear what other ACCA students say though 🙂
