Step-by-step solution

6 steps

  1. Identify the overall duration and total marks for the paper.

    The paper states a duration of 60 minutes and a total of 50 marks.

  2. Calculate the total marks allocated for Section A.

    Section A consists of:

    • 1 Multiple Choice Question: 5 marks
    • 2 True or False: 5 marks
    • 3 Matching Columns: 5 marks Total marks for Section A:
    5+5+5=15 marks5 + 5 + 5 = 15 \text{ marks}

  3. Calculate the total marks allocated for Section B.

    Section B consists of:

    • 4.1 General Ledger Journals: 7 marks
    • 4.2 CRJ, CPJ and DJ: 16 marks
    • 4.3 Accounting Equation: 6 marks
    • 4.4 Debtors Ledger: 6 marks Total marks for Section B:
    7+16+6+6=35 marks7 + 16 + 6 + 6 = 35 \text{ marks}

  4. Calculate the overall total marks for the paper.

    Total marks = Total marks for Section A + Total marks for Section B

    15+35=50 marks15 + 35 = 50 \text{ marks}

  5. Calculate the overall total time allocated for the paper.

    Time allocation for Section A: 20 minutes
    Time allocation for Section B: 40 minutes
    Total time allocated:

    20+40=60 minutes20 + 40 = 60 \text{ minutes}

  6. Verify the calculated totals against the stated totals.

    The calculated total marks (50 marks) match the stated total marks (50 marks).
    The calculated total time (60 minutes) matches the stated duration (60 minutes).

    The paper is structured for a total of 50 marks and a duration of 60 minutes.

    Total Marks: 50\boxed{\text{Total Marks: } \textbf{50}} Total Duration: 60 minutes\boxed{\text{Total Duration: } \textbf{60 minutes}}
