MARKING PRINCIPLES

1.   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 item)
2.   Full marks for correct answer. If answer is incorrect, mark the workings provided.
3.   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)
4.   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.
5.   Where indicated, part-marks may be awarded to differentiate between differing
     qualities of answers from candidates.
6.   Where method marks are awarded for operation, the marker must inspect the
     reasonableness of the answer before awarding the mark.
7.   In awarding method marks, ensure that candidates do not get full marks for any item
     that is incorrect.
8.   Code f = foreign item

3.3   The owner is concerned that internal control over the fixed assets is poor and that the
      figures for the Fixed Assets in the books and the Financial Statements are unreliable.
      You have been appointed as the new internal auditor. Provide THREE suggestions
      on how to solve this potential problem.

      Any THREE √√        √√     √√

         physical security needs to be improved (e.g. cameras; security guards)

         proper log books need to be introduced; all employees must fill them in

         proper supervision – spot checks on calculations; recording of transactions

         the fixed asset register must be kept up to date at all times; checked regularly

         separation of duties – the different aspects relating to fixed assets must never be
          done by one person only

         proper authorization of the buying and selling of fixed assets

          (Any other reasonable answer)

                                                                                        6
