    When they talk about vulnerability tracking in the text, is it the same as penetration testing or the same as vulnerability probing.

    And what is vulnerability assessments?

    I know that vulnerability probing is a part of penetration testing.

    So what is vulnerability tracking and vulnerability assessments.

    So is it correct that eliminating that strategy means implementing a better strategy than the competitor or matching up to the competitor.

    But how is this question applied to the prisoner’s dilema.

    Ken, do you mean Kd/risk free rate less the rate of the subsidised loan being the interest on which the shield is calculated?

    Referring to the IRR question above.

    Please help me understand why the IRR is lower and not higher than the cost of capital by 1.25%.

    Surely to lower the NPV from 100 000 to 0 we have to increase the discount rate so that the PV of the cash flows reduce to make NPV 0.

    Is it the same for currency futures? when you take out a contract (settlement date) and when the contract closes (redeemable date)

    @kengarrett said:

    Of course 1545 is 1500 x 1.03,,but all competing goods made in the USA would have inflated by 3% too.

    So, in theory no,differemce in competetive position

    ———————————————————————————————————————-

    Is the fact that the price has risen by 3% a negative aspect? The inflation rate is lower than that in the UK – 10%. And also the dollar has strengthened – a positive side

    I’m sorry I’m a bit confused. What are the two sides to the competitive position of the UK – the positive and the negative sides. Please can you elaborate.

    So would you say that in your answer, the competitive position of UK would weaken? and how?

    I would say no it would strengthen because local goods would be sell more as they will be cheaper than imports and exports would be more competitive. Is that correct?

    Example:

    It is now end May 20×4. The company will need to borrow 2 million at end of September 20×4 for 6 months with September futures

    My understanding is that the company’s hedging period is from May to Sept (4 months).
    But the loan is for 6 months. So how does an interest hedge of 4 months cover up for an interest period of 6 months.

    Actually the whole question is:-

    RISK

    Invoiced sales may be inaccurately recorded, missed or recorded for the wrong customer.

    CONTROL

    This includes:-

    – perform receivables ledger reconciliation (check info in individual ledger matches that in
    nominal).

    – perform receivables ledger control account reconciliation.

    What is the difference between the above 2 controls?

    Is it correct when I say that we can easily use the lock-in rate $1.3 to calculate the cost or receipt in pound with the hedge, but only when it is a perfect hedge

    Thank you. It’s a bit clearer to me now.

    But refering in the example above, is $1.3 the lock in rate even if the hedge is not a perfect size one.
