we are calculating the value of the loan notes and not the cost to the company, thus we wont after-tax it. Its the amount at which the potential buyers value a load note and not the effective cost incurred by the co.
mcq’s will be the key determinant i guess. Cause almost all of us screwed up the section c

They will step mark you. I think you can expect about 20-30% of the marks for the section c question 32 and about 40% for question 31. hope for the best inshallah.

In question 31 after finding conversion value the loan notes were convertible so i found the cost of debt from them and thats how i got WACC around 5 i dont know if its correct as most of you are saying around 12.
