Deborah,
Yes! I really didn’t like the MCQs. Quite confusing.
The two 20 markers weren’t bad.How did you find the MCQ scenario Qs?

With the bank is making sense with the cash which is part of working capital. Dividend was not part of working capital. So quite sure that answer of dividend was good …
For the MCQ’s i remember answering;
1: D
2: C
3: B
4: C
5: D
6: A
16: C
17: A
18: B
19: B
20: A
21: A
22: B
23: AThe MCQs were OK, except questions on the nominal interest rates and inflation rates.
Who said only options 1 and 2 were correct, for the four way equivalence question? Real interest rates should be the same – but im not positive!
The last second question on depreciation of euros caught me off guard too- higher inflation should lead to depreciation of domestic currency so option 1 may be out (since dollar has inflation rate), but I really wasn’t sure about option 2. 🙁 oh how much I hate the MCQs, one wrong move will cost you two marks 🙁Hope the exam went well for everyone!!

Thought it was an okay paper.Anyone get a balancing charge of 250?
NPV and receivable were good.
20k+ saving on EOQ. 6250 taking the discount.
Mentioned how they could factor, offer discounts and employ better credit managers etc.
Inflated sales variable and fixed costs. Inflated working capital with the movement each and head and then put it back. Big positive NPV.
Currencies the rate strengthened on 15-20
For the written NPV question what year did every start the inflation from? T1?
And also what year did everyone start the tax payable and tax depreciation from? T2?

From T1 and tax was payable same year too. TAD too year 1
For the improvement of receivables management i stated that the credit control function should follow process (e.g. telephone then letter, then stop orders then legal action…etc) as well as make use of a invoice discounter or factor or offer settlement discounts to get payment sooner

The tax on cash flows was the same year as the cash flows.

Which question was that on the balancing charge?
Shouldn’t the forward rate be 15.66 something? Dollar was the domestic currency. (If I’m on the same question)
How did you calculate the savings from EOQ?
