Anyone calculated WACC for APV in second question? how did you do it?

were anyone able to regear beta equity that ungeared from Harmony beta (or dont know what was the name of the company at the end)??

about questions. What I remember were:

1. a) switch from organic growth to acquisition. directors discussing how to acquire new entities. the same industry or new industries? or the same industry but new companies.
b) option pricing
c) i) equity value of acquired entity
ii) equity value of combined entity
iii) discussion about calculations
d) explanation of terms like: mandatory bid, equal treatment of shareholders, poison pil, crown jewelery when defending against takeover bid.

2. Adjusted NPV calculation 17 points and b. specific discussion (dont remember)
3. Black scholes,
4. a) Forex Hedge VS money market hedge (9 points) multinational holding company, netting of payables receivable against group companies. (7 point calculation and 3 point discussion)
c. Transfer pricing.

GREAT explaantion! very simple. U need to write ACCA books instead of BPP and Kaplan. 🙂

Very general topics. No specific knowledge required. All preparation time wasted 🙂
As it was very general I dont know to what they will give points.
ALso new words like, Briefing, entrepreneural risk which never met before.

B section question 2 was taken from F8 🙂

Did not get what was the purpose of questions,
May be they tried to make it easy due to combination of p1 and p3 ?
