dc.description	PERFORMANCE OF CANDIDATES Scripts that were marked and moderated indicated poor performance in many centres, but there were equally good scripts presented in some centers. This is not surprising because of the structure of preparation in different centers. Candidates’ performance may also be a function of better teaching facilities available in some centres. Generally most candidates fared better in question 4, that is, Preparation of Financial Statement. The weaknesses of many candidates were exhibited in the theory questions	en_US
dc.description.abstract	STANDARD OF THE PAPER The standard and the choice of the questions were satisfactory since both the coverage and weighting structure of the Public Sector Accounting and Finance (PSAF) Paper seemed to have been followed. This is quite fair because it provided the candidates enough flexibility to answer the variety of topics in the PSAF syllabus appropriately. Again, the type, relevance and quality of the questions provided in the examination were well-balanced. There were no questions deemed to be sub-standard by the moderators and examiners during the coordination. The interpretation of two of the questions however appeared to be problematic in the minds of the candidates, for example, Question 1(C) and Question 1(D). Question 1(C) is about the current statutory rate of the District Assembly Common Fund and Question 1(D) appears to be too discretionary. It would be appreciated if there would be more clarity of questions. However, the quality of most of the questions was of good standard.	en_US
