I used average receivables because the closing receivables does not give a true picture or accurate figure due to high year end balances.
I think even in the lectures on open tuition it was always advised to use average receivables once provided. But then again that was for F5 lol.
I guess the same holds true for F9.

The same question is also interesting for me. i calculated for 10 years. There wasnt enough space in my answer blank for 10 years but I did it))))
Dont know right or not)) Was it suppose to be for 4 years??There is no need to use 10 years. The depreciation is linear,
so NPV of tax benefit = 50mln / 10years * 25% * annuity@10years.December 8, 2017 at 5:43 pm #422025Was the contribution not supposed to be inflated for 10 years?
December 8, 2017 at 5:43 pm #422026One Mcq was about working capital element
I chose sales wasn’t working capital element.
Other Mcq about calculating cash cycle .
There was one with redeemable preference share part of equity ?
In q 31 with Wacc reserve to be included or not .?
I didn’t .December 8, 2017 at 5:44 pm #422027I chose economic and transaction risk.
Discounted payback 2.4
I think I chose avg receivable but don’t remember nowDecember 8, 2017 at 5:45 pm #422028Tax saving was 1.5 each year in q32
December 8, 2017 at 5:46 pm #422029Payback 2.4
Not wc – sales
For the wacc convert or redeem were we meant to calculate the cost of debt for both and use the lowest?!

i think g=9%?
44*1.09/416+9% = 20.5%I remember doing same way
December 8, 2017 at 5:50 pm #422032In the Wacc debt was redeemable at 10 yrs if not converted at 8 yrs for 11 shares
I got confused thereDecember 8, 2017 at 5:50 pm #422033@kanchandhankar said:
One Mcq was about working capital element
1. I chose sales wasn’t working capital element.
2. Other Mcq about calculating cash cycle .
3. There was one with redeemable preference share part of equity ?
4. In q 31 with Wacc reserve to be included or not .?
I didn’t .1. agree
2. inventory + receivables – payables.
3. I put “NO” because logically it is exactly the same as debt.
4. I added reserves to equity, i.e. included.December 8, 2017 at 5:51 pm #422034What did you guys get for the mv for ordianry shares in WACC..i changed my answer to the 50 million x the share price and ignored the nominal value of the shares (0.25) i think.

when we are calculating Wacc on mv , mv of equity effectively already includes the reservesDecember 8, 2017 at 5:58 pm #422039@kanchandhankar said:
I remember doing same wayWhy did you use 9% ?
We should calculate the increase rate for dividend:
today’ dividend = 0.20, 5 years ago dividend = 0.17.
rate approximately = 4.1% (0.17 * 1.041^5 = 0.20)Am I not right ?

Actually u r right
I guess m being confused here.
I did use historic dividend to calculate dividend growth but don’t exactly remember what was my answer
If latest div was .20 and first was .17
U r absolutely right it will be 4.146December 8, 2017 at 6:06 pm #422041GUYS! WHICH IS THE MOST RISKY???

I chose the same (ordinary shares as the most risky).
December 8, 2017 at 6:17 pm #422049thanks, my reply was shares as well.
i remember section b question about money market vs forward. i had answer around USD 3k…
there was also the question about investors, who behave rationally regarding the news on the company. does anyone remember given options?
December 8, 2017 at 6:17 pm #422050I just read certificate of deposit are cash equivalent inv
Equity inv are riskier than bond and cash investment
December 8, 2017 at 6:20 pm #422052i remember question in section b, like what will be the spot rate in two years.
i understand it is necessary to multiply the current spot rate by trading currency inflation (x2) and divide by home currency inflation (x2 as well).
