    Dear Sir I ask if I should to memorize (keep in mind) the all formulas on chapter 8 (portfolio theory) which is not included on the exam formula sheet or not??
    as those formulas are very complex & it’s related calculations are also complex
    & I search for any related question on my BPP kit to help me be familiar with those formula but I didn’t found any one

    The only formula from portfolio theory that you are likely to need is the formula on page 33 (for calculating the standard deviation of a combination of two investments) – it is given on the formula sheet (and it says that in the notes above the formula).

    On page 34 there is a formula for the coefficient of correlation. This is not given on the formula sheet and is unlikely to be needed. However it was needed in two past questions (although quite a long time ago!)

    Have you watched the lecture on here? It explains using the formulae.
