MARKING GUIDELINES
Time: 3 hours 150 marks
These marking guidelines are prepared for use by examiners and sub-examiners,
all of whom are required to attend a standardisation meeting to ensure that the
guidelines are consistently interpreted and applied in the marking of candidates'
scripts.
The IEB will not enter into any discussions or correspondence about any marking
guidelines. It is acknowledged that there may be different views about some
matters of emphasis or detail in the guidelines. It is also recognised that,
without the benefit of attendance at a standardisation meeting, there may be
different interpretations of the application of the marking guidelines.
Key: a accuracy

a 4
Yes, it will be enough.
ca
No marks if calculated area
1.3.3 The breadth of the lower deck is 2,6 cm m measuring the plan
but the breadth of the upper deck is comparing ruler
2,2 cm yet they both equal 5,5 m on the m measurement to actual
plan. measurement
m explanation makes sense
OR 3
28 m = 12,7 cm is not proportional to m measuring the plan
9 m = 7,4 cm comparing ruler
Could compare areas visually m measurement to actual
measurement
m explanation makes sense
1.3.4 The areas are not all calculated correctly. a description
Saloon: 13 × 4,75 = 61,75 m2 a
Upper deck: 9 × 5,5 = 49,5 m2 3
Could identify rounding as error a
Accepted 4,75 instead of 5,5 as error

He has enough butter to make 60 brownies. ca
OR
1
cup + 3 teaspoons 8
2
=113 g + (14 g × 3)

= 155 g ÷ 16 × 60
= 581, 25 g needed
1
2 × 250 g 625
= g ca total butter needed
2
∴ chef has enough
Instead of calculating 2,5 blocks = 625 g,
could convert 581,25 g to 2,325 blocks
If only brownies or only frosting the max
is 5/8
Accepted rounding 3,75 to 4 batches (total
needed 620 g)
Or 625 ÷ 155=4,03, which is more than 3,75
1.5 First year: no tax indication that there was
a
no tax paid in first year
Second year:

= R1 650 + 2% × R240 000 a R240 000
= R1 650 + R4 800
8
= R6 450 ca
Total tax paid = R6 450
Total turnover = R1 015 000 a
R1 015 000 – R6 450 = R1 008 550 ca turnover minus tax
1 008 550 ÷ 1 015 000 × 100 ma
= 99,36% ca correct answer
