    It is very unlikely that return on equity will be asked in Paper MA.

    If it is asked then usually we are only given year end equity and so there would be no choice but to use that. If you were given equity at the start and end of the year, then you would use the average (add the two together and divide by 2) but it would be extraordinary if that were needed in the exam.
