their social environment through the meaningful interpretation of accounting information which they will come across in future.

* To increase students’ understanding of accounting and management

principles.

* To enable students to acquire knowledge and skills of accounting systems generally used by business enterprises.

2. ENTRANCE REQUIREMENT Financial Accounting N5 3. DURATION OF INSTRUCTION Full-time: A minimum of five (5) contact hours per week for one semester Part-time: A minimum of three hours per week for one semester 4. EVALUATION/ASSESSMENT

Evaluation is conducted on a continual basis by means of short class and revision tests, formal tests, internal assessment and practice-orientated assignments, exercises as well as an external examination.

4.1 Internal evaluation/assessment 4.1.1 Class and revision tests/assessments

Short class and revision tests are given on a regular basis and are aimed at rectifying problems before proceeding with new modules. Class and revision tests can be short daily tests that take up a short time during each period, and are compiled and marked in accordance with the amount of work done in the module. Exercises done by students, as well as short assignments can also be marked and can count towards the semester mark for class and revision tests.

4.1.2 Formal tests/assessments

Formal tests are conducted to cover all modules or work units. These tests are aimed at evaluating students’ knowledge on completion of modules or work units.

4.1.3 Practice-orientated assignments

Students are given a practice-orientated assignment and projects to evaluate whether they have mastered the practical component of Accounting. Student performance with regard to zeal, punctuality in completing tasks or assignments conscientiousness, interest, dedication, adaptability, etc. which should be gradually developed to facilitate entrance to the world of work, is also included.

5

“Version 14_05_15”

These marks, in relation to the weighted value of the indicated modules, form part of the final semester mark.

5. SEMESTER MARK 5.1. A semester mark is determined out of 100 and is compiled from formal tests,

internal examination and marks allocated to an assignment or practical project. The semester mark is compiled as follows:

Tasks Type of assessment activity (the duration

and proposed mark allocation can be increased but not reduced)

Scope of assessment % Contribution to ICASS mark

1 Assignment or practical task Should cover at least 20% of the practical

outcomes in the syllabus.

20%

2 Test The duration and marks should align with

the external exam paper/s, e.g. if the examination paper counts 200 marks for 3

hours, then the test should count 60-70 marks for 1 hour duration

At least 40 – 50% of the syllabus content must be

covered in the test.

30%

3 Internal Examination The duration and marks should align with

the external exam paper/s, e.g. if the examination paper counts 200 marks for 3 hours, then the test should count 120-1400

marks for 2 hours’ duration

At least 70 – 80% of the syllabus content must be covered in the Internal

examination.

50%

Total 100% 5.2 To gain entrance to the external examination, a candidate must obtain a sub-

minimum of 40% in the semester mark. If entrance to the examination is achieved, a semester mark, on a 40:60 basis, in combination with the external examination mark, will form part of the final (promotion) mark.

5.3 Semester marks obtained are valid for the two years following directly on the

examination in which the original semester mark was initially used. After that, this mark is no longer valid. The student must thus register again for the same subject and obtain a new semester mark.

6. EXAMINATION 6.1 The examination paper will be compiled, moderated and marked externally. 6.2 The examination paper consists of practice-orientated questions and aspects

such as application, analysis and synthesis will feature in the compilation of

6

“Version 14_05_15”

accounts, statements and accounting-related calculations. Although comprehension questions could also be used, these will be limited as far as possible seeing that the examination papers are directly aimed at accounting-related tasks as carried out in practice.

6.3 A three-hour paper totalling 200 marks will be set at the end of the semester. 7. PASS REQUIREMENTS 7.1 To pass Financial Accounting N6, a candidate must obtain a final mark of 40% by

addition of the semester mark and the examination mark in a 40:60 ratio, provided that a sub- minimum of 40% is obtained as a semester mark as well as an examination mark.

8. GENERAL INFORMATION 8.1 The practical components (assignments and projects) are aimed at preparing the

student for the world of work in general and at the execution of accounting functions in particular.

8.2 The practical components are also aimed at increasing the student’s competence

level in such a way that he/she can be productive in a job for which an accounting background is required.

8.3 It is thus necessary that the student acquires practical experience in the field of

accounting by doing assignments on the execution of accounting functions as dealt with in organisations to establish direct contact between the student and the accounting practice. Visits by experts in accounting can guide the students and help to train them.

8.4 The practical components are further directed at learning an accounting package

on a microcomputer so as to keep pace with modern computer-directed trends in accounting areas as applied in practice. It is therefore recommended that students enrol for Computerised Financial Systems N6 together with Financial Accounting N6.

the straight line method. Motor vehicles are shown at cost less depreciation at x% per year on the fixed instalment method. The rates are regarded as appropriate for reducing the book values over the useful life of the assets to the residual values.
