Abstract:
EXAMINER’S GENERAL COMMENTS
This is a report on Taxation and Fiscal Policy geared towards bringing out the
weaknesses of students and to help the Institute map out strategies to assist students
to pass their examinations easily. The report would also help Tuition Centers to
prepare students adequately for the examinations.
Description:
STANDARD OF PAPER
The questions followed the usual pattern in terms of standard, quality and coverage
of the syllabus. It can be inferred that the standard of the questions was in line with
what has been known over the years in the academic/professional community as far
as ICAG final tax paper is concerned.
The questions administered in the examination were very clear. They were not errorridden. The typing was quite clear and made reading easy. The marks allocated to
each question and sub question were fashioned in accordance with the weighting in
the syllabus and in line with previous examinations. The Institute should continue to
insist on standards from their examinations in terms of standard and broad coverage
of the syllabus to make students read all the areas instead of doing selective reading.
