    i have confuse with the question Jonas Chemical Systems, in the topic of appraisal investment,
    regarding the VAR.
    information
    the NPV of project = $1.965m
    The volatility attaching to the net present value of $1.02 million (given)
    the answer show (1.965m- 0)/1.02 = 1.9265m
    and i know how to find 97.3%, but just dont really understand why we need to calculate this

    and in the answer, VAR are calculate using 95% and 99% rather than 2.7% (100-97.3)

    The current edition of the BPP Revision Kit does not contain a question called Jonas Chemical Systems.

    If it is marked as being a past exam question then say which past exam and I will find it.

    (Have you watched my free lectures on VaR? )

    I am sorry but I do not keep old Revision Kits.

    I only have the current edition and it does not contain that question – presumably BPP removed it because they did not think it a good question.
