I know that the wording can be confusing, but whenever the examiner words it like this it means that they go up by 750,000 a year from what they currently are. Not that they go up by an extra 750,000 in each subsequent year.
It is the same as this: suppose you currently earn 1,000 a month. I am your employer and I say that I will increase your salary by 250 a month. Surely you will then expect to be getting 1,250 a month. You will not think that I meant that you will get 1,250 next month, then 1,500 the following month, 1,750 the month after and so on 馃檪
Hi Thanks for the lectures. Can you please explain when you said for the Equity calulation for CJ you used the equation backwords. Please can you show how you got an answer of 1.43 thank you
thank you very much for your explanations, it is very help for our exams, but their is a problem, when I take the exam I can not remember for the stages.
Hiya, Thank you for such a clear explanation. I would like to ask clarification on the working capital bit, you said that unless mentioned otherwise WC should be added back but when I check my calculations for question 1 of dec 2009 paper with suggested solutions, I realise they did not add the WC back. Would I have lost marks if I had not written I am assuming the extra WC will be just for the life of the project? Thanks in advance for your reply.

part b of the qns, does critically discuss means to just list down the flaws, in this case, the flaws of directors’ views on invt. appraisal?
John Moffat says
No – it means state whether their views are sensible or not, and explain why.

Sir, the sales should increase by 750,000 units every year, right? How did you understand that the units are constant every year?

Hi
Thanks for the lectures.
Can you please explain when you said for the Equity calulation for CJ you used the equation backwords. Please can you show how you got an answer of 1.43 thank you
John Moffat says
Ba = Be Ve/(Ve + Vd(1-t)) from the formula sheet
If you multiply both sides by (Ve + Vd(1-t)) and divide both sides by Ve, then you get
Be = Ba (Ve + Vd(1-t)) / Ve
We know Ba, Ve, Vd, and t. So now you can calculate Be

Are you sure you are asking about question 1 from December 2009?
There is no working capital in that question.
