Finance ✦ Penny’s Take
AAT Personal Tax FA2016
BPP Learning Media · 2017
95/100
👍 Worth It
If you are sitting the AAT Personal Tax assessment, BPP's FA2016 coursebook does exactly what it promises: systematic coverage of income tax, National Insurance, capital gains, and inheritance tax, all tied tightly to Finance Act 2016 rules. The format is thoughtful — worked examples, chapter tasks, keywords, and a companion Question Bank that mirrors actual assessment conditions. The one honest caveat is that tax law moves fast; this edition is now several Finance Acts behind, so check whether your exam still sits under FA2016 before buying. Within its intended window, though, this is the kind of reliable, exam-focused material BPP has built its reputation on. Worth It for the right student in the right year.
