Make sure youread the tax rates and allowances in the exam.You may find they prompt you toremember things.For example,as high emission cars only receive an 8%WDA forcapital allowances it may remind you that high emission leased cars with CO2 of>130g/km have a restriction in taxed adjusted profit computations of 15%.
F7
MCQ’s can comefrom any syllabus area.
Consolidation of Financial Statements
For theconsolidation question you will benefit from having the proforma/standardworkings of your final answer set up first.For example if the questionrequires a consolidated SFP then drawing up the SFP with open brackets besidethose numbers that do not need a standard working can get all the easy addingacross 100%of the Parent and subsidiary figures.The other headings can havethe standard working number written beside them instead.A couple of lineswould need to be left for each section of the SFP in case other things come upin the additional information.
In addition tothis setting up the standard workings can also be done.The subsidiaries’sharecapital figures and the year end retained earnings can be put into thesewithout reading any of the additional information.In addition to this theparents retained earnings figure can also be put into W5(Retained earnings)without reading any additional narrative.
With all of theproformas and standard workings set up,it means that you are able to tacklethe issues in the order that they are presented in the question.It also allowsyou to deal with both sides of any adjustments as everywhere is set up to makethe adjustments.It hopefully prevents non-balancing accounts and means thateach issue only has to be addressed once;thus helping with time management.Also if you run out of time,you will get full credit for all that you havealready done provided everything is referenced through.
A similarprocess can be applied to the income statement equivalent of setting up finalanswer and workings to help tackle the issues that come up.
