The ACCA TX (UK) paper — at a glance.
ACCA Taxation (TX) — UK variant — is a 3-hour computer-based exam taken at quarterly sittings. It covers the UK tax system in full: income tax, corporation tax, capital gains tax, inheritance tax and VAT. With a global pass rate of around 50%, it rewards students who can apply the right tax rules to computations under time pressure, not just recall them. Practice Tests Academy offers 578 Section A questions, 177 Section B scenario tasks and 54 Section C tax computation questions, with timed mocks and expert video lectures included.

3 hours. 3 sections. Tax computations rule Section C.
TX rewards students who can apply the right tax rules under time pressure — not just memorise them. The exam tests income tax, corporation tax, VAT, CGT, and IHT, with full computations in Section C where most marks are won or lost.
Where TX students get stuck — and how we fix it.
TX isn't just hard — it's hard in specific ways. Here are the three places students lose the most marks, and exactly how Practice Tests Academy gets you past them.
The Challenge
Losing marks on Section C tax computations
Section C is 40% of your marks — and it's where most TX students fall apart. Full income tax, corporation tax, and CGT/VAT/IHT computations under time pressure punish students who only know the theory. Examiners reward structured workings, clear narrative, and the right pro-formas. Get those wrong and the marks evaporate, even if your final number is close.
How PTA Fixes It
108 full Section C tax computations with model answers
The largest volume of full Section C computation practice you'll find — every one with a complete model answer showing workings, narrative, and the exact structure examiners reward. Practise enough of these and Section C stops being a fear and starts being marks in the bank.
The Challenge
Drowning in tax rates and allowances
TX is uniquely rate-heavy. Personal allowances, NIC thresholds, corporation tax bands, capital gains exemptions, IHT nil-rate bands, VAT thresholds — and they shift each tax year. Most students try to cram them in the final week and panic when something doesn't stick. Getting a rate wrong cascades through an entire computation.
How PTA Fixes It
Active recall through targeted practice
Our flashcards and concise study notes drill the key rates, allowances, and thresholds — and our question bank embeds them in real computation scenarios. You don't memorise rates in isolation; you use them where they actually matter, which is how they actually stick.
The Challenge
Running out of time on Section C
Most TX students fail not on knowledge but on pacing. Section C computations are multi-step — one slow workings page early on and you're 10 minutes behind by the end. Students who haven't practised under timed conditions consistently leave marks on the table because they couldn't finish the last computation.
How PTA Fixes It
Strict timed mocks with detailed pacing feedback
Up to 6 full timed mocks under real exam conditions — same structure, same time pressure, same Section C complexity. Detailed performance analysis after each mock shows exactly where you're losing minutes, so you can fix pacing before exam day, not on it.

From stuck to passing — in their own words.
TX students from around the world share how PTA helped them master Section C tax computations, retain the rates, and walk into the exam with confidence.
Section C tax computations were terrifying. The volume of full income tax and corporation tax computations on PTA — every one with model answer workings — finally got me fluent. Passed TX first time with 68%.
Liliya makes VAT actually click. The output/input rules, partial exemption, the schemes — she breaks it all down patiently with clear examples. By exam day VAT felt like the easiest part of the paper, not the trickiest.
I was self-studying TX from textbooks and getting nowhere on Section C. PTA's video lectures and computation walkthroughs were the structure I'd been missing. Worth every penny — passed first attempt.
Failed TX twice on Section C pacing. Neesha walks you through full income tax and corporation tax computations like she's sitting next to you — every step explained, every shortcut shown. Third sitting: passed comfortably.

You're not alone in finding it daunting — TX covers income tax, corporation tax, VAT, CGT, and IHT, each with their own rates, allowances, and rules. The trick is not to memorise legislation in isolation, but to learn it through application. Our course breaks every key area into bite-sized video lessons, and our question bank embeds the rules in real computation scenarios. By exam day you're not reciting legislation — you're using it.
ACCA TX (UK) is a 3-hour computer-based exam with three sections: Section A is 30 marks (15 OTs, 2 marks each), Section B is 30 marks (3 case-based scenarios with 5 OTs each), and Section C is 40 marks (3 constructed-response questions — typically one 10-mark plus two 15-mark on income tax, corporation tax, and one of CGT/VAT/IHT). Pass mark is 50%.
Section C is 40% of your marks and where most TX students lose points. The trick is practising full tax computations — not just reading worked examples. Examiners reward structured workings, clear narrative, and the right pro-formas. Our question bank includes 54 full Section C tax computations, every one with a complete model answer showing exactly how to score top marks.
Tax computations are multi-step — one mistake early on cascades through everything. The fix is practice volume + structured workings. Our debrief videos walk through the most common pitfalls (misapplying allowances, wrong order of reliefs, confused NIC categories) and show you the pro-forma layouts that minimise errors. Most students improve significantly just by following the structure examiners expect.
Don't try to memorise them in a list — they won't stick. Use them in real computations and they'll embed naturally. Our flashcards drill the key rates (personal allowance, NIC thresholds, corporation tax bands, CGT/IHT exemptions, VAT thresholds) and our question bank puts them into action. After 30–40 practice questions, the numbers become second nature.
Our TX (UK) question bank includes 800+ exam-standard practice items: 578 Section A OTs, 177 Section B scenario tasks, and 54 full Section C tax computations with detailed model answers. Every question is written by experienced TX tutors and aligned with the latest ACCA syllabus.
Master gives you the full course — video lectures, study notes, the complete question bank, and up to 4 timed mocks. Ultimate adds BPP eBooks, 2 extra mocks (6 total), and 3 tutor-marked mocks with personalised feedback on your Section C technique — invaluable for TX, where written workings and structure make or break your mark. If you've struggled with Section C in past sittings, Ultimate is worth it.
Course packages come with 1 year of access (covers up to 4 exam sittings). Practice Kits include 180 days of access. Mocks include 90 days of access. If you don't pass after using your package, our Pass Assurance means we'll extend your access for free so you're ready for your resit.
