What advice would the examiners give to candidates who realise that they have made an error in their calculations?
Do not spend valuable time re-writing the whole computation or an extensive working such as a capital allowances schedule for a single error. Annotate the incorrect figure or the point at which the initial error was made and make a note at the end of the computation or question identifying the nature of the error or the correct treatment.
