    We had options of probability analysis, sensitivity analysis, simulation … so there’s that! And treasury bills are issued by the government and thus they are risk free 🙂
    Idk why people are worried, we shall pass!! :):)

    Yeah, hope we all pass this exam

    Can anyone tell me for the WACC question, what number you used for risk free rate of return in the CAPM, when calculating Ke? And also what discount factor was used when generating the redeemable bonds? I used that weird 4% treasury bill option as I couldn’t see any other option.

    I used treasury bill as risk free rate as normal I have dealt with this many time, the cost of equity is 11%. Dont worry about this

    Hello all,

    I have the below concern regarding to taxable depreciation 25% declining balance, which you can assume to be paid at the START of first year of operation? NPV Calculation uses end of year cashflow? Thus, I add back 800k (1st depreciation ) to year 0 to initial investment? Am I wrong? For WACC I got about 10.6 something. Optimum investment NPV: 13.3m
