You must have an answer in the same book in which you found the question and so ask about whatever it is in the answer that you are not clear about.
Everything needed to be able to answer this question is explained in our free lectures. The lectures are a complete free course for Paper FA and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
December 19, 2020 at 4:19 pm #600334Hello! I was about to ask an exact question. You mean this question was answered in your lectures? and thank you for answering.
December 19, 2020 at 5:10 pm #600343No – I don’t answer this specific question, but I explain everything that is needed to be able to answer this question!!
This forum is to help people who have watched the lectures but are unsure about something, or have attempted questions in their Revision Kit and do not understand the answer.
It is certainly not a forum to provide full answers to full questions 🙂
