dc.description	PERFORMANCE OF CANDIDATES The performance of the students in the paper was generally below expectation relative to the nature of the questions and below the average pass rate in the May examination. The overall pass rate was 28.21% compared to the over 30% pass rate in the previous sitting. This was however still better than the general historical pass rate of below 10% The possible reasons for the below expectation performance were still valid:  Poor preparations by students as answers provided clearly showed lack of or inadequate knowledge of the subject area in some cases  Poor tuition services provided especially out of Accra centres  Failure of students to thoroughly study and use ICA syllabus and content manuals  Poor quality and background of students who wrote the paper vis a vis the very high standard of the questions and expected standard at that level  Poor knowledge by students on exam preparation and questions answering techniques  Limited access to study materials especially the out of Accra centres  The below expectation performance were still noticed to be more visible in centres outside Accra	en_US
dc.description.abstract	STANDARD OF THE PAPER The standard and quality of the Financial Management paper appeared normal for that level. The questions were well distributed in terms of syllabus coverage as well as the quantitative and theory aspects. The questions were well spread across the subject areas and also covered well both quantitative and non-quantitative aspects of the syllabus The questions also appeared straight forward for students to understand and answer. No ambiguous questions were noticed to pose challenges to well-prepared students understanding. It was also observed that generally no sub-standard questions were set in the paper and all questions were considered normal and standard for that level. Mark allocations appeared generally fair relative to the nature of questions and expected answers. Where questions set had alternative approaches to answering the questions, alternative solutions were provided through the coordination process to cover students answering from alternative approaches.	en_US
