It’s perhaps changed since you sat the exam James. There is actually two scenario based questions in the exam. Question 1 is an income tax computation and question 2 is the corporation tax computation. They are worth 20% in total. It is definitely worth doing these to begin with because you can pick up very easy marks but just doing data entry 1/2 a mark is better than leaving it until last. Just watch timings, keep an eye on the clock and remember you have 40 multiple choice after. It’s all about timings with this one. Hope that helps!
@@LukeKermodeACA yes I have my exam in 2 weeks and have been told it's one income tax and one corporation tax question - both worth 10% each. Thanks for your videos, they're so helpful! Passed accounting and assurance last week!
Great video as always. As an addition, it's worth mentioning that the majority of the administration points are in the tax tables this year (I'm not sure if this is the same as previous years). In any case, rote learning the admin points doesn't seem necessary as long as one gets used to using the tax tables for that purpose.
Hey, your videos are really good. I have only just done Assurance but I am interested in what's next. What percentage of the exam is based on the long question? Is it a similar amount to accounting?

Great point Keelan! Thanks for supporting as usual! 😀
How long should you spend on POT? from the start of the course to taking the exam.

Hey Loz! From memory it is 20%ish of the paper. Certainly less the accounting scenario question!
