    We may start with Investment Appraisal which included:

    -Net present value
    -Relavant Cashflows – CF arises due to project (Normally excluded apportionment/allocation costs/sunk cost / depreciation and so on)
    – How to handling inflation
    (Nominal cashflow – need to adjust inflation (fisher effect)
    – Real CF – Ignore inflation (i.e based on current price)

    Adjusted Present Value

    – Based case NPV + financing effects (assume K d)
    (Tax saved on interest payment *debt capacity
    , Net benefits of subsidized loans , any other costs/benefit)

    Foreign Direct Investment

    Foreign CF (or in local currency)
    Exchange rate (Purchasing power parity / mid rate)
    Home CF
    Additional home expenses/Income
    Home tax effects
    Net after tax CF
    Discount @ home WACC
    Present value
    (Note: Most likely nominal cash flows only)

    I recommend to start next Friday 20 Aug 2010, so can any one set a time table for studying
    For example
    First week from 20 Aug to 27 Aug will start studying (Net present value
    -Relevant Cash flows – …etc

    As mentioned above
    Wait for the time table – see you next Thursday to start together hand on hand

    I m also in…….

    Note: Transfer price is set on arm’s length basis(Market prices) if exam ques states that co. is willing to charge higher transfer price than market price than u must state that co. policy is not suitable as most government`s allow transfer price to be set on arms length basis due to tax purposes………..

    Great minds, great ideas. Im interested in this group. I will suggest however that we do a quick revision on WACC and basic investment appraisal techniques like Pay back period, NPV, Sensitivity analysis etc before delving in P4.
    Thank you.
