Excellent writing skills are highly valued in accountancy - and they'll also help you succee d in your ACCA exams

　　It's a given that professional accountants are comfortable with numbers， but the same should be true for writing. Clear communication skills are highly valued， especially when presenting complex financial data to a non-financial audience. And in an exam， excellent writing skills will help you answer questions more effectively， and gain the professional marks on offer.

　　Good writing reflects forethought and planning - easy to do when creating a long report， but more challenging when writing against the clock. But the underpinning method stays the same for both. Start by quickly noting down what you want to say； use an introduction to set the scene， if relevant； list points in a logical order or develop arguments systematically； then， if necessary bring everything together with a conclusion.

　　To build up your writing speed and stamina it is worth practising writing for long periods of time. With today's high level of computer use， many of us don't write for any longer than a few minutes at a time. Developing your stamina will stand you in good stead for the three-hour exams.

　　In ACCA exams， professional marks are awarded for answer clarity， format and presentation， so good writing is crucial here. In the exam， use a clear， simple style and pay attention to handwriting， spelling and grammar - careless mistakes irritate and poor legibility makes answers harder to read and mark. And in the world of work， sloppy writing can also cast doubt on overall validity - if a word is misspelt， might not a number also be wrong？

　　良好的寫作體現了前瞻和計劃的能力-會使長篇報告的準備變的輕松，但是卻因為爭分奪秒而更負有挑戰性。基本方法是兩者堅固。快速記錄下來想表達的內容，用介紹做鋪墊，把重點按邏輯順序羅列出來，建立系統性地辯論，如果需要的話，再把所有的內容匯總出一個結論。

　　加強寫作速度和耐力從長遠來看是很有價值的寫作練習。現如今電腦使用的普及，我們很多人都長時間不寫字。鍛煉寫作的耐力對于應對三個小時的考試是很有易的。
