I did not adjust capital employed too. In question 1 have you discussed performance of the company or just performance report in part (i)?

In 1a evaluation of performance report was required, not the performance of the company, so I discussed the report!

As far as I remembered I got Eva around -20mln for both….I did not adjust capital employed since did not reveal any adjustment which refer to PY… Did you?

[Narine]

The paper was ok in general! Lost a lot of time while picking question to answer. ? Did anyone notice got negative Eva in 4q for both of divisions? Also did you advice to implement abc for timber in 3?

Was there 90% of usage of Machine M or 85%? I think I have used 85% in calculations……will it cost me a mark?

I remember the lecturer mentioning in class that if you get the units wrong, but compute the rest correctly, basing on the figures you have got, you only loose like a max’m of 2mks. Given in this question the units were copy and paste, you would probably loose just one mark.

let’s face it, there are 3mks for tax savings through CA alone. Then initial outlay and scrap value in their right periods (0 and 4); adjusting for inflation using the right rates; A mark for using the right discount factor; another for copying the right figures from PV tables. and one mark for making a decision basing on your figures.
And all these are not really affected by the units.

We shouldn’t be worried even if we got the units fugures wrong.

Thats good to hear, thank you!!!

i did but i don’t know if it was correct

In the exam I also understand that sales volume will increase by 9000 per year, so i took 9000 for Y1, 18000 for Y2 and so on. But now i realize that that was not realistic…..Upset about that!! how dou you think many marks it will cost?

Also reading other comments, i figure out how many silly mistakes did i do like not including overdraft in new net assets…ahhh… and all because of time pressure….
Will keep the fingers cross to pass!!!

Was the hedging question pay or receive 500,000 euros?

It was receipt as far as i remember, so the company sould be borrowing for 3 months.

Did you inflated working capital (500,000$) in Q1 a when calculated NPV for the project?
tax relief for WDA was starting with T2, right?

The question on the change of accounting date, am I right in saying that we had to subtract 2 months of overlap profits (2/11) from the long accounting period to bring it down to 12 months?

Question 3A, I got 6625 shares. (6.40-2.40)= 4, from this 1.6 was an excess gain, thus 10,600/1.6? Anyone get this?

yes, the overlap profit of 2 months from 11 months in total should be deducted for 14 month period change.

I also got 6625 shares in Q3a.
