F6 Taxation (UK)– 稅法 總結篇（一）

未參加過F6考試的學員可以先參考一下歷年試題，一共是5道大題，每道大題都是比較明顯且獨立的知識點，所以在學習和復習稅法的過程中，學員們要注意知識點之間的聯(lián)系和獨立性。

F6的考試內(nèi)容可以分為七大部分，分別是UK tax system, Income tax and national insurance contributions, Chargeable gains for individual, Tax administration for individuals, Inheritance tax, Corporation tax和Value added tax。

首先要了解的就是UK tax system。在F6的考試中，不會牽扯到很多書寫的內(nèi)容，但是每次考試也會有10左右的分數(shù)是留給考生們陳述的，而且部分內(nèi)容也會出自UK tax system，所以，學員們也不要對UK tax system的知識掉以輕心。

在UK tax system的內(nèi)容中，一共包括了The overall function and purpose of taxation in a modern economy, Different types of taxes, Principal sources of revenue law and practice和Tax avoidance and tax evasion這4部分知識。
