    Hi.

    MCQ question 19.
    The suggested answer for calculating the conversion value, says.

    1.25 x 1.045 x 70 = 106.40

    I don’t get this answer on my calculator. Anyone know what I’m doing wrong. Plus Where’s is the 1.045 come from when the growth per year is 4% not 4.5% .

    I’m a little confused by it
    Thanks

    Either you are misreading the answer, or your printer has done something funny!!

    It is actually 1.25 x 1.04^5 x 70 = 106.40

    The 1.04^5 is 5 years growth at 4% per year.

    (Incidentally, I have uploaded lectures working through the whole of the Paper F9 specimen paper (and the December 2014 real exam). You can find them here:
