Penalties for foreign items are applied only if the candidate is not losing marks elsewhere in the question for that item (no foreign item penalty for misplaced items). No double penalty applied. 2. Penalties for placement or poor presentation (e.g., details) are applied only if the candidate is earning marks on the figures for that item. 3. Full marks for correct answer. If the answer is incorrect, mark the workings provided. 4. If a pre-adjustment figure is shown as a final figure, allocate the part-mark for the working for that figure (not the method mark for the answer). 5. Unless otherwise indicated, the positive or negative effect of any figure must be considered to award the mark. If no + or – sign or bracket is provided, assume that the figure is positive. 6. Where indicated, part-marks may be awarded to differentiate between differing qualities of answers from candidates. 7. In calculations, do not award marks for workings if numerator and denominator are swapped – this also applies to ratios. 8. Where penalties are applied, the marks for that section of the question cannot be a final negative. 9. Where method marks are awarded for operation, the marker must inspect the reasonableness of the answer before awarding the mark. 10. Operation means ‘Check operation’. ‘One part correct’ means ‘Operation and one part correct’. 11. In awarding method marks, ensure that candidates do not get full marks for any item that is incorrect at least in part. In such cases, do not award the method mark. Indicate by way of . 12. Be aware that some candidates provide valid alternatives beyond the marking guideline. 13. Codes: f = foreign item; p = placement/presentation. This marking guideline consists of 9 pages. ### Page 2 Downloaded from hlayiso.com (EC/JUNE 2022) ACCOUNTING P2 2 QUESTION 1 1.1 CREDITORS’ RECONCILIATION 1.1.1 Creditors ledger Statement received account of from Fragrance Fragrance Suppliers Suppliers Preliminary balance/total R28 375 R33 770 (i) - 375  (ii) - 1 500  (one mark ( - 750 - 750) each) (iii) - 500  (iv) + 1 800  (two or (9 700 - R7 900) 0) (v) - 12 500  (vi) + 6 320  (vii) - 8 000  - 400  Correct balance/total 23 495 * 23 495 13 * for both totals Opening balance/total have to be included. 1.1.2 Calculate the average creditors’ payment period (in days). 114 000 three marks ½  (100 000 + 128 000 ) x 365 832 200  114 000 x 365 832 200 50 days  One part correct and MUST be multiplied by 365 5 1.1.3 Provide TWO internal control measures which can be implemented to ensure better management over creditors.
