    I found the paper actually ok, I think they certainly could of made it much much harder.

    To be honest, I did the NPV question on 9,000 units each time, not incremental. It didn’t even cross my mind! but re-reading I am confident I did the right thing. a very similar past paper question for this question which thank god I did 🙂

    Seems a lot of problems on Q3, but that was the only question I did confidently for all parts! Think I did ok on calculation in Q4 but not so much on written parts.

    Great for a bit of WACC, pretty happy included all loans/pref shares etc but bit wobbly on a full answer for the CAPM bit in Q2. Calculate it? fine! write about it? oh!

    Will be disappointed if I pass that. but good luck to all 🙂

    Paper was well balanced, found enough to talk about in Q1, Q2 and Q4.

    The press release I wrote very much like any press releases I have heard, trying to be very persuasive and apologetic…was this how others approached it?

    arguing against the bribe from a consequentialist approach I discussed the fact the company had to almost live with being unethical, and the potential of external parties finding out. I also got Kant in there somewhere, who says it is unethical when our duties are identified and then not fulfilled. A company’s duty does not included accepting bribes in the first place, so I said it is therefore unethical or something like that.

    Hopefully a pass, they didn’t ask me anything I didn’t understand put it that way. 🙂

    Best of luck to all!!
