    Section C:
    1. Factoring with recourse and early payment discount offered to customer.
    2. NPV, IRR, payback period and ROCE. (without taxation)
    No WACC, no EOQ, no Baumol model, no Miller-Orr…

    Section C was analysis of 2 options, option 1 was factoring and the effect it has on investment, option 2 was Miller method and a ton of theory questions about Miller method

    Other section C was NPV with probability alongside a theory question about risk and uncertainty

    Could’ve been easier and it could’ve been harder….

    Was option 1 factoring or just early settlement discount offer? I don’t remember a factor being mentioned

    Mine was early discount. Different paper types. Was your NPV in the second theory question positive or negative ?

    guys had a question in sec C “Helbac or Hebac” something like that… Where the questions were of Early settlement discount + Miller orr model (spread upper/lower limit).
    If yes, can you tell what were the 2 theory questions of it. I think i have missed one. Can’t remember.

    Anyone that has an answer to any of these Q’s please respond.

    1)While calculating payback period, did you guys use the discounted payback period or the normal payback period?

    2)what did you guys get for the ROCE

    3)in that MCQ question relating to strong and semi strong market efficiency, in which 2 projects with positive NPV’s were given, where in the directors were going to announce the projects in the next day and fund them with retained earnings.. ,,,what was the answer? The options were 6%, 6.05 , 6.25 and something else that i cant remember now. What’s the correlation?

    Had sec c question on calculating npv, though i have a doubt in the administration cost, it was given central cost apportioned to the project. Do we take that?
    Soft and hard capital rationing
    Debt and equity finance and find the respective ratios.
    Then a directors suggestion and response to that question

    Yes, I got negative NPV and hence the project was not financially acceptable.

    I used the borrowing rate.
    Did you get a question on whether interest rate options are payable immediately?

    Hi all,

    I tested positive on Friday morning and I couldn’t attend the exam. I did AAA exam on Monday and I have the docket with me. Do you think this is a valid reason to get a refund and have the exam on June?
