  文丨高頓Cecile老師
  英國(guó)愛(ài)丁堡大學(xué)碩士,高頓ACCA名師。多年在英國(guó)接受英式教育,上課風(fēng)格簡(jiǎn)明扼要,通俗易懂,善于解析復(fù)雜考點(diǎn),有助于幫助學(xué)生順利通過(guò)考試。
  又到了12月的考季,學(xué)習(xí)Taxation的同學(xué)們是否開(kāi)始了緊張的復(fù)習(xí)階段呢?今天我們就花15分鐘時(shí)間一起來(lái)看一下12月份考季Taxation這門(mén)考試需要注意些什么。
 
  01通過(guò)率
  想必大多數(shù)同學(xué)都比較關(guān)心這一門(mén)的通過(guò)率。按照官網(wǎng)給出的最近5次的通過(guò)率,Taxation這一門(mén)的通過(guò)率一直都是比較穩(wěn)定的,徘徊在50%左右,所以同學(xué)們的通過(guò)幾率還是比較大的。
  02考試框架
  考試一共分為3個(gè)部分。Section A為15道選擇題,共計(jì)30分。Section B為3道中型場(chǎng)景題,每道題包含5道選擇題,共計(jì)30分。最后為3道大題,共計(jì)40分。
  03考試當(dāng)天注意事項(xiàng)
  帶好打印的準(zhǔn)考證,ID,計(jì)算器,筆出發(fā)吧!
  04考試小技巧
  Taxation的考試時(shí)間為3小時(shí),一共要做100分的題目。這意味著在考試中,卷面分值1分所花費(fèi)的平均時(shí)間為1.8分鐘。也就是說(shuō)在做section A和section B的選擇題時(shí),每道題目最多花費(fèi)3.6分鐘去做,千萬(wàn)不要在一道題目上浪費(fèi)太多的時(shí)間。
  另外,官方建議在考試的時(shí)候最好留出1個(gè)小時(shí)20分鐘的時(shí)間去做section C的三道大題,所以同學(xué)們一定要在考場(chǎng)上把握好對(duì)時(shí)間的掌控。在做Section C的大題時(shí),合理使用spreadsheet自帶的計(jì)算功能,比如使用求和功能等,這樣在考試中可以節(jié)省大量的時(shí)間。
  05考前小熱身
  下面我們一起來(lái)看一下在上一次9月份的考試中,錯(cuò)誤率比較高的2道題吧:
  Question 1
  Elsa is employed by Bee Ltd.During the tax year 2018-19,Bee Ltd provided Elsa with the following benefits:
  (1)A private gym membership(2)A contribution of£1,800 into Elsa's private pension schemeElsa had use of the private gym membership throughout the tax year.The normal membership fee is£1,000,but Bee Ltd negotiated a discount and paid£900 for it.What amount of class 1A national insurance contributions(NICs)are payable by Bee Ltd in respect of Elsa for the tax year 2018-19?
  答案:£124
  解析:Class 1A NIC is only charged on the gym membership and it is calculated based on the cost to the employer(not what the employee would have paid).Therefore,900*13.8%=£124
  Question 2
  In which of the following cases must an appeal be made directly to the Tribunal?
  A.A company appealing against a penalty for late filing of a corporation tax return
  B.A company appealing against a penalty for late filing of employer year end returns
  C.An individual appealing against a penalty for late registration for value added tax(VAT)
  D.An individual appealing against a penalty for late payment of capital gains tax
  答案:C
  解析:Appeals relating to indirect taxes must be made directly to the Tribunal.Many candidates selected A,which is not correct because for direct taxes,appeals must first be made to HMRC.
