I haven't ever done payroll and hadn't studied it but thought I'd just take the exam after reading a book called "Payroll in 90 minutes" I achieved 73% in the exam, which although it's a fail is better than I was expecting due to the lack of study. My problem with resitting it is that I cannot justify a cost for a course of over £400 which is the cost of most of the training providers and the ICB themselves do not produce a textbook for Payroll.
It seems to be an omission in the range of texts to me, that you can buy Level 1, 2 and 3 and self assessment textbooks either produced by Kaplan or the ICB themselves, but cannot do the same for Payroll.
Which texts did any of you use to study payroll, not including those who paid hundreds of pounds for tutor supported courses? Obviously the HMRC website is a great source of information but I'm looking for a book (or two or three books) that will enable me to learn and pass the exam second time around.
