Why choose this exam?
To complete the ACCA Qualification exams you must complete two Essentials exams and then complete two from four Options exams. The Options exams cover in depth the specialist areas of professional accountancy, namely: financial management; performance management; tax; and audit and assurance.
Advanced Taxation (ATX) is designed to enable candidates to be able to provide clients – both individuals and businesses – with the information and advice they require regarding the impact that the major taxes have on their financial decisions and situations.
If you have work experience in this area, or have ambitions to work in taxation, then this exam could be a good choice for you.
You should also think about how comfortable you are with the fundamental areas of taxation. There are materials in the section below which will help you reflect on the basic understanding of taxation and make a decision as to whether this exam is right for you.
