Sir, in the question Morada, I want to know why the repair and maintenance service was taken to be 30% and the travel service was 70% when calculating the asset beta under the second director’s proposal. I can’t seem to find anywhere in the question that tells us the percentage of both parts.
Sorry Sir, its the first director’s proposal not the second.
It is because the proposal says that the book value of the non-current assets will reduce by 30% is the the repair and maintenance business are sold (leaving therefore the travel services to be 70%).
Later, under ‘other financial information’ the question says that the proportion of the book value of the non-current assets gives a fair representation of the size of each business unit.
Thank you Sir
You are welcome 🙂
