2 In the text (purpose statements, qualificationrules, etc), any references to NQF Levels are to the pre-2009 levels unless specifically stated otherwise. This unit standard does not replace any other unit standard and is not replaced by any other unit standard. PURPOSE OF THE UNIT STANDARD This unit standard will be useful to people who aim to achieve recognition at some level in Further Education and Training or to meet the Fundamental requirement of a wide range of QUALIFICATIONS registered on the National QUALIFICATIONS Framework. People credited with this unit standard are able to: Use mathematics to plan and control personal and/or household budgets and income and expenditure. Use simple and compound interest to make sense of and define a variety of situations including investments, stokvels, inflation,appreciation and depreciation. Investigate various aspects of financial transactions including costs, prices, revenue, cost price, selling price, loss and profit.

3 LEARNING ASSUMED TO BE IN PLACE AND RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING The credit value is based on the assumption that people starting to learn towards this unit standard are competent inMathematics and Communications at NQF level 2. UNIT STANDARD OUTCOME HEADER Use mathematics to plan and control personal, regi Specific Outcomes and Assessment Criteria: SAQASPECIFIC OUTCOME 1 Use mathematics to plan and control personal, regional and/or national budgets and income and expend OUTCOME NOTES Plans describe projected income and expenditure realistically. Calculations are carried out using computational tools efficiently and correctly and solutions obtained are verified in terms ofthe context. Budgets are presented in a manner that makes for easy monitoring and control. Actual income and expenditure is recorded accurately and in relation to planned income and expenditure. Variances areidentified and explained and methods are provided for control.

4 OUTCOME RANGE Bank accounts, provincial and key elements of national budgets and tax.

UNIT STANDARD ESSENTIAL EMBEDDED KNOWLEDGE The following essential embedded knowledge will be assessed by means of the specific outcomes in terms of the stipulatedassessment criteria.

7 Candidates are unlikely to achieve all the specific outcomes, to the standards described in the assessmentcriteria, without knowledge of the listed embedded knowledge. This means that the possession or lack of the knowledge can beinferred directly from the quality of the candidate`s performance against the standards. Budgets. Terminology and definitions associated with financial situations. Estimation and approximation. Compound increase and decrease.
