for this paper, the Q1.
The examiner calculate the contribution of $4 separately, can I calculate like this: convert to the GR and integrate into the APV?
thanks!May 11, 2015 at 8:54 am #245231It is integrated into the APV in the examiners answer.
I think you mean integrate it into the NPV. You should not, because it is earned in $’s and so you should keep it in $’s rather than convert (and then convert it back again).
May 11, 2015 at 11:24 am #245249Yes. NPV
If it should keep it as $. The sales price and the component bought from Tramont, all of these figures are quoted as $. but we should convert at GR. I am still do not understand why only this figure should keep as $. It seems does not make sense because this 4 contribution arises due to brought from Tramont and cost $7. why examiner convert 7 and keep 4 during calculation! If I convert during the exam? I wil lose marks? Thanks John.May 11, 2015 at 4:09 pm #245285The contribution is an additional $ receipt to Tramont (additional to the remittances from GR), and therefore should be dealt with as it is in the answer.
You would lose marks doing it differently.May 11, 2015 at 11:14 pm #245359I understand. Thanks.
