Hello Sir,
I have just did my first attempt of paper P3 and i felt that it was a moderate paper.
My query is that in Q1 a company's portfolio was given with three subsidaries and asked to analyze it.
I have analysed and advised that what to do with what subsidary but i didn't use any model.
So will it be acceptable because it wasn't specified that we have to use a model for answering that and i have give a detailed reasoning for the choices i have made.
Please do reply me cause i am very much nervous.
Thank you.

Okay thanks for that, it relieved the stress i was facing for the past two days.
I have heard that people saying models are compulsory to apply.
But thinking as a business analyst i don't find that appropriate.
Will examiner consider my approach and if he would have mentioned to use relevant model and still i haven't used any then it would be a problem or not?

If you have seen the December 2016 P3 exam, would you be able to confirm the NPV amount? Thanks
