    Regarding to the format of report in question 1, in every past exam’s answer, it should be as follows:

    Report to the BOD
    Introduction

    But in the Pre-Mar 24 exam, the format in the answer is:

    Report
    To :
    From:
    Subject:

    Introduction

    So, what is the right format of a report I should be followed in the exam?

    In question 1 :

    “It has an ‘A’ rating according to the biggest credit rating agency in Madonk, and this corresponds to a credit spread of 55 basis points.”

    Why A credit rating = risk free rate ?

    3. When the question is “Calculate WACC” and “Estimate NPV”, I already prepared all the calculation on spreadsheet. Should I must write in the content of report :
    WACC is…(see Appendix 1)
    NPV is… (see Appendix 2)

    1. There is no one correct format for a report. Both of the examples you quote are acceptable.

    2. Yes, you should refer to the appendix in respect of any calculations.
