    I had a decimal, I dont think that's necessarily wrong.


    I still have my paper could try and do it again to see what happens.
    Yeah i'm going to speak to my accounting teacher next time i'm in school to see what she says.

    IT's just that any past paper you do, in any account usually if you have a decimal it turns out wrong.

    Our teacher said that the questions are always designed so that you don't get a decimal in P&L/Balance Sheet questions and if we got a decimal we were to look back as we'd done something wrong.

    My corporation tax came out to be 11 but my balance sheet was 7 out, frustrating :-(
    exam was really easy overall to be honest!

    I did get a .25 but remember that it was £000 so it's not like I'm dealing in pence.


    Either way I don't really care

    whenever I get a decimal I know i'm doing something wrong it is usually the way it works. If it's "£000" then usually a decimal is wrong.

    I did crash it this year so I am hoping for a B at least.
