Hi Trephana,
Am faced with a scenario where by the cashflow statements of my two chosen companies (banks) are prepared in two different methods.

One has used the direct method and other indirect method.

This has paused a problem to me as am failing on how to lay them side by side in my appendix – Cashflow Statements.
Their financial year end is the same.

What should I do?

[joeackim]

Dany, I support the suggested solution.

You are right. Your method is very collect as well. There are two methods of finding N(d1). The one you know is the best for somebody like you and me when rounded to 2 decimals. The other one is that used in the suggested solution.
The method in sugg sol. has got 3 decimals for d1 = -0.055. So first they will find table fig for the first 2 dec which is same 0.0199 that is supposed to be subtracted as you collectly said…but they will find another table fig for the 3rd dec. which is approx nearer to 0.006 (next right on table) and get its table fig as 0.0239. Lastly an avge of the difference of the 2 table figures get to be added to 0.0199 ie 0.0199+((0.0239-.0.0199)/2) to find an exact N(-d1) -Put Option.
Your method is just right as well and you cant be marked wrong I hope.

Preps need to start now. This paper needs total dedication. I really wish to give it maximum tym…. Lets start discussions now!!!!!

I think its total of the two companies cash flows plus the synergetic benefit of
10 p.a less the gain of 4 by Nairobi shareholders

For example in yr 1: Nairobi Cashflow 20 + Delhi CF 8 + Syng Benft 10 = total of 38 less gain of 4 = 34.
However there is need to clearly understand whats going on here. Somebody may clarify it better.

So interested to join P4.
Am doing my last 2 ….P4 & P7 email jlwara@yahoo.co.uk

I feel its a good combination coz you have one solving subj and one reading subject which balances up when your feel stressed up by solving or reading.

However both subjects require great concentration in understanding such as: Business Models in P3 and Accounting standards in P2. You really need to work extra hard to get in line with them mainly in application and intepretation.

However, I feel its one of the passable subjects. I advise from my past
experience when doing P2 & 3
