    Dear Sir

    In the answer pertaining to the subsidy they give an annuity figure of 3.588

    I cannot understand where that comes from.

    It is the annuity factor at 4.5% (the risk free rate) for 4 years (the length of the borrowing).

    Ok thanks. I thought we were supposed to use tables and round. I am never sure. If we are mid calculation do we round or only round for an actual calculation?
    For example:
    let’s say the cost of equity of something is 10.79% so when i discount i use 11%
    But let’s say I am doing a WACC calculation with that same figure, now do i use 11 or 10.79?
    same with this answer, the 4.5% was used
    Thanks

    Using the tables to the nearest % will usually still get full marks. Even if you lose marks you would probably only lose 1 mark.
    It depends how short of time you are – using the formula does not actually take many seconds.
