Accounting Grade 11 Paper 2 Gauteng June 2023 Memo (English)

Downloaded from hlayiso.com PROVINCIAL EXAMINATION JUNE 2023 GRADE 11 MARKING GUIDELINES ACCOUNTING PAPER 2 11 pages 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 penalty for misplaced items). No double- penalty is 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. Where penalties are applied, the marks for that section of the question cannot be a final negative. 8. Where method-marks are awarded for operation, the marker must inspect the reasonableness of the answer and at least one part must be correct before awarding the mark. 9. In awarding method-marks, ensure that candidates do not get full marks for any item that is incorrect at least in part. 10. Be aware of candidates who provide valid alternatives beyond the marking guidelines. 11. Codes: f = foreign item; p = placement/presentation
