PROVINCIAL ASSESSMENT

                                             GRADE 11

                                         ACCOUNTING P1
                                              JUNE 2024
                                    MARKING GUIDELINES

MARKS: 150

MARKING PRINCIPLES:
1.  Unless otherwise stated in the marking guideline, 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 item).
    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 answer incorrect, mark the workings.
4.  If a pre-adjustment figure is shown as a final figure, allocate the part-mark as a working for that figure
    (not the method mark for the answer). Note: if figures are stipulated in memo for components of
    workings, these do not carry the method mark for final answer as well.
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.  Operation means 'check operation'. 'One part correct' means operation and one part correct. Note:
    check operation must be +, -, x, ÷, or per memo.
9.  'One part correct' means ‘operation and one part correct’. Where method marks are awarded for one
    part correct, the marker must inspect the reasonableness of the answer and at least one part must be
    correct before awarding the mark. If a figure has earned a method-mark, this will be regarded as ‘one
    part correct’.
10. In calculations, do not award marks for workings if numerator and denominator are swapped – this
    also applies to ratios.
11. In awarding method marks, ensure that candidates do not get full marks for any item that is incorrect
    at least in part. Indicate with a .
12. Be aware of candidates who provide valid alternatives beyond the marking guideline.
13. Codes: f = foreign item; p = placement/presentation.

                              These marking guidelines consist of 7 pages.

         A partnership is not a legal entity.
         Unlimited liability.
         Share in the profit.
