Leaving Cert Accounting: 'Sting in the tail' in higher level questions

He said while many of the anticipated topics came up there was a sting in the tail of many of the questions.
Mr O’Loughlin, of the Institute of Education, Dublin noted an adjustment on Question 1 on manufacturing accounts and said the wording of the question was “a bit ambiguous.”

In Section 2, he described questions 5 and 7  as “lovely” but said Question 6 was “very challenging”.
Mr O‘Loughlin said while Question 9 (costing) was very predicable, the budgeting question introduced a sales revenue commission, which has never appeared there before.

It also included the repayment of the capital  sum on a loan, which made the question longer than usual, he said.
