Hi

I wondered whether anyone can help please. I have just done the Wilcox & Co mock exam and the goodwill distribution between Wilcox and Brazil has been calculated to the penny. I am used to rounding to the nearest £, would this be marked down in the exam though?

Thank you!

Did you work to the nearst £ in direction of the question or from your own, because if it is demanded to convert then the you are in the right direction.

  • Can l have the chance to operate voluntary for any business if anybody have somewhere in mind !!!

I have always entered everything in to the penny - as in real life if you round everything to the nearest pound, it could add up to a large variance.

I am not sure how the exam actually works, but I would personally not round up - especially as the mock has the answer with pennies in.  I also have never seen any instruction on the actual exam papers to round up therefore would be wary of doing it.

Hope that helps

Thank you both for your replies! I think it will be safest to work things out to the penny!

Always calculate to the penny on these exams, and that includes the balance sheet.
