    Also the question does not say the shares are of 0.5 $..to get total shares pf 20m .. could you please help me understand how did they come up with interest rate of 8 percent and 0.5$ shares

    BPP have made a mistake in the typing of the question.

    If you look at the actual exam question on the ACCA website, you will see that in the capital structure the loan notes say against them ‘8%’ – BPP forgot to include it!!

    Also, in the actual exam question, against the ‘ordinary shares’ is typed ‘$0.50 nominal value’

    It is very poor of BPP 🙁
