Can we be tested on sensitivity analysis in paper PM nowadays?
Yes you can be.
Can you please explain should we take the profit before interest and tax OR profit after tax for the calculation of sensitivity analysis?
Is this the correct formula =? PBIT / Any variable item
The higher the percentage the better it is.
It depends on what you are required to calculate the sensitivity of.
Plesse respond to this whether we should take the profit before interest and tax (PBIT) OR profit after tax (net profit) for the calculation of sensitivity analysis?
Secondly, the higher the % of sensitivity analysis the better it is. (Is this correct too?)
I did respond – it depends what you are being asked to calculate the sensitivity of.
It is not really a question of ‘better’ or ‘worse’. However the greater the sensitivity the less worried we are about the uncertainty.
