How did everybody find the exam?
September 6, 2019 at 2:17 pm #545275time constraints!
September 6, 2019 at 2:18 pm #545276Was the hedging for 10€m or 20€m
I am confused ?
September 6, 2019 at 2:20 pm #545277Good time management was very tough to achieve.
September 6, 2019 at 2:24 pm #545279I don’t know why examiner keep testing on time management than on knowledge …….
September 6, 2019 at 2:24 pm #54528010€
September 6, 2019 at 2:26 pm #545281What topics were very challenging
September 6, 2019 at 2:33 pm #545282? I remember 24m$ was my answer
Seems I consider 20€MSeptember 6, 2019 at 2:35 pm #545283what is the right answer for inherent risks categories ? (frequent and severe) does it relate to topics “accepting ” mitigating ,hedging ?
September 6, 2019 at 2:36 pm #545285All of these an evidence of becoming confused because all of your concerns are the time !
September 6, 2019 at 2:36 pm #545286Yes
September 6, 2019 at 2:41 pm #545288Truth is, this exam should be a 4hour paper. No one cares that much about time management in real life.
September 6, 2019 at 2:46 pm #545289what is the correct approach of dividends capacity ? (first part of second question)
my approach was PBT minus tax minus investments and residual amount is a potential divs ?September 6, 2019 at 2:47 pm #545290The exam was terrible for me. I’m just hoping for a 50. The requirements are ridiculous considering the little time we have to read through, comprehend and attempt! It’s frustrating because this is my second attempt at this course.
September 6, 2019 at 2:48 pm #545291It doesn’t make sense. ACCA is always trying to turn accounting into rocket science. I could solve all the questions there but there’s just no time to write reports afterwards.
September 6, 2019 at 3:07 pm #545298I really don’t get how they are giving only 3 hrs for this exam. It takes too long to do the APV, we are not using excel to multiple the inflation and rates and presenting them well and cohesively. Q1 took a-lot of time. Q2,3 Were not that hard, however, I could not complete all because of time constraint.
Are they testing my knowledge or how fast I can write?September 6, 2019 at 3:14 pm #545300What was the spot and forward rate?
Was in range of 2$/€ ?
September 6, 2019 at 3:47 pm #545302Anyone who remembers all the questions that came up??
September 6, 2019 at 3:51 pm #545303This paper was not difficult apart from not enough time to read the story to apply answers very disappointed. Q1 I thought there has to be something bigger here seemed too simply.
What project to anyone go for
Dividend capacity any numbers

? I remember 24m$ was my answer
Seems I consider 20€MYeah I got the same from forward as higher receipts compared to money market

Yeah I got the same from forward as higher receipts compared to money marketSo it was in the range of 24 m
September 6, 2019 at 5:06 pm #545325Same impression as earlier comments, Q1 took me 2h to complete. It wasn’t difficult but calculations, analysis and report took a lot of time. Hedged 20M, don’t remember seeing 10. Money markets hedge gave me better result though. Also in range of 24Y$. Rushed through questions 2 & 3. I’m hoping for a pass but paper is impossible to complete in time given
