PAPER F5, PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT
 
  From December 2014 the Paper F5 exam is being re-structured as follows:
 
  New structure
  The syllabus is assessed by a three-hour paper-based exam.
  All questions are compulsory. It will contain both computational and discursive elements.
  Some questions will adopt a scenario/case study approach.
  The exam structure consists of:
Section A
(%)
20 x 2 mark objective test question
40
 
 
Section B
 
3 x 10 marks
30

  The two 15-mark questions will come from decision making techniques, budgeting and control and/or performance measurement and control areas of the syllabus. The section A questions and the other questions in section B can cover any areas of the syllabus.

  There were no deletions but a few additions to clarify what was already assumed in the syllabus as detailed below in Table 1:
