The acquisition question was hard. It was the topic I was best in when practicing, but was the worst in the exam.
The Swap question with 2 counter party was really tricky. Also the Acquisition question was really tough
It was really difficult to calculate value of combined companies, the number of share issued, the 50 50 share ?? it was supposed to be the easiest section for me
Examiner’s report will come out to state that students who prepared and practiced on that area scored well???
How do you ask a question like that , never seen in previous exams….???
Went with counterparty 2. 0.5 diff vs 0.1. But to be fair I spent the first hour looking at the screen hoping for a meteor impact
in NPV case study, for divisiable and no diviaible which project did you choose?
Actually I chose counterparty 2 as well, because C2 benefit was 0.5% and with C1 was 0.1%. SO same lagic. Thanks. But you wrote figures differently so it means figures can be different yes?
Yes, totally. Nothing about combined company, no share to share details… couldn’t even start. Hope for the rest and the theoretical part of the first question…
So how did you guys calculate the gain to shareholders from share for share exchange? How many shares for how many? And the equity gain in the very first question?
Yeah but strangely I think the first part of the question was what’s the difference between that and the IRF. I bamboozled them with information because no twat ever asks that in real life
NPV, SOFP adjustment and capital rationing!! This paper was very lengthy and a train wreck to be honest!
The 1st, 2nd & 3rd question of Section A – Acquisition & creation of wealth for shareholders was very tough. The mood was off reading this question itself. Had to jump to Question 2 & 3.
