    Hello Trephena,

    I found myself a mentor last Oct for Period 30 submission and much to my dismay, he came back to me saying that OBU has a new rule and that is either he is my senior manager or I must be a student of his.
    May I know how true is this new rule? I have looked through all the websites but I could not find this ‘new rule’.
    Also, is there any chance I can check if an individual is an approved qualified project mentor?

    Thank you

    Dear John,

    Need help with this MCQ.

    Investment project costs $160,000. Has an expected life of 4 years and expected scrap value is $20,000. The anticipated CF as follows:-

    Year 1: $40,000
    Year 2: $60,000

    Dear John,

    Could you please help me? I have a problem calculating the no. of days for this qn.

    Demand of 7500 units per month. Each unit cost $5. Ordering cost is $100. Inventory holding cost is 10% of purchase price per year.

    There is a lead time of 30 days between placing an order and receiving the delivery.

    if they order the EOQ each time, how frequently will they place an order (to the nearest days)?

    Thank You

    Hi John,

    Extracted a qn from MCQ section. Would appreciate if you could help me on this.

    Share price is $5.20 at end of the year, which is $0.60 higher than it was at start of the year. During the year, dividend of $0.45 per share was paid.
    What’s the total shareholders return over the year?

    I calculated div yield (0.45/5.20) which obviously is incorrect. Please help.

    Thank you
