      The coupon rate is 10%, there is tax at 30%, so the net interest cost to the company on $100 nominal is 70% x 10 = 7 per year.

      Did you watch the free lectures on this before attempting the test?

      I don’t know where you are getting 33.1 from.

      It should be (36/31.1)^0.33333 – 1 = 0.05 (or 5%)

    sir in question 3 ,
    I don’t get why we multiply 36 by 1.05

    why do we not just divide 36 by 540 and then add the 0.05

        Because that is what the formula provided on the formula sheet requires!! Did you not watch the free lectures first?

    Sir there is an issue with the question 3 answer. The annuity df for 5 yrs is 3.791, not 3.761 as you stated in a previous comment. The npv @10% is $ -4.847 .The irr will come to 12.89%

        I assume that you are referring to my comment from 2017. There was indeed a mistake in my comment and I have now corrected it. The IRR is not 12.89% however. It is 11.45%.
