Hi sir In the b part 1 of the question are mentioned fixed borroiwng rates and bank plus rates In the examples in the course notes you demonstrated to subtract the difference of the 2 fixed and borroiwng As in this question 5.8%-4% and BANK 0.6%-0.4% 1.8-0.2 = 1.6% /2 and B. Co would get 60% of benefit in total so the resultant should be =0.96 But in the mark scheme answer it is 1.2 Because they have added the 2 differneces of bank rates and fixed rates Csn you please explain why?

Sorry sir I got it i think so In your examples if we do by the mark scheme way We get the transfer amount directly so it is easy we just have to decide on tbe opposite borrowings of each company and interest payments but the transfer amount is directly calculated Every question is so hard unlike f9 in where there were same pattern questions

You are correct. (And yes - Paper AFM is a lot harder than Paper FM because it is much more testing understanding and application rather than just learning rules.)
