nah couldnt find answers to it. i dont understand why the fins faculty just doesnt put them on the blackboard. maybe they repeat questions.

Yep after doing some papers I found that maybe 30% of Qs are repeated.

Cos kyung hates us.

Nah, they probably do repeat questions, cos it can only vary so much.
Also, i'm counting on the final to be more straight forward - my mate last sem got 96 for fins1613, so hopefully they've just toned down the difficulty.
The only thing is that in the quizzes we had 20-30 minutes for 3-4 questions of a fair standard of difficulty, and the 06 paper had questions of the same calibre, but nowhere near as much time to do each one.

shieet.

wow. there is so much content they can play with. they shouldnt even feel the need to repeat questions.

I want at least half of the exam to be repeated just so I can feel secure at this rate. far out :S

Just straight forward WACC formula.
Rd = 7.5%, Re= 11.6 (using CAPM)
D/V=1/5, E/V=4/5
WACC = 0.2x7.5x0.6 + 0.8x11.6 = 10.18

ahhh.. thx... I forgot the 1-T... what an idiot.

what do you mean? if you want 100% you have to get 50/50. 90% 45/50 and so on.

me personally, im aiming for 27-30/50.

Well, to get a pass. I heard there's some big scaling in the final exam last year (not 100% sure), so 25/50 doesn't mean you'll get exactly 50% for example.

are you saying it will scale down if i get 25/50?

and i doubt they have scaling in commerce courses. otherwise they wouldnt have had to release that memo saying they will mark easier etc.
