About this course
Complete study notes for ACCA Taxation – Ireland (TX-IRL), written by a practising Big Four audit manager and ACCA lecturer and aligned to the syllabus examined in June 2026, December 2026 and June 2027. The course uses Finance Act 2024 and the tax year 2025 throughout, matching the tax tables ACCA issues for these sittings. The course runs through 35 chapters in syllabus order: the Irish tax system and its administration; income tax on employment, trading, property and investment income; PRSI and the universal social charge; corporation tax for single companies and groups; capital gains tax; local property tax; and VAT, finishing with the computer-based exam and exam technique. Each chapter explains the rules and the reasons behind them, then works through basic, intermediate and exam-standard examples with full workings and examiner-style commentary, and uses diagrams and tables to show how the rules fit together. Every lesson has knowledge checks, and every chapter closes with an exam focus step, a chapter summary with memory aids and an eight-question quiz that gives feedback on each answer. In total there are 224 lessons, 487 worked examples and 280 quiz questions, with a bibliography, the assumptions used in the course and a glossary at the end. Start with Before You Start, then work through a chapter, try its quiz and move to the matching questions in the Taxation – Ireland (TX-IRL) Practice Questions course.
