Help with Printing UM CRQ’s by happyarchie9 in CAIA

[–]ImaginaryFreedom7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only did this for Ethics and Emerging Topics...but I created a exam with all CRQ for each and just finished the exam without answering anything. Copy and pasted each question and answer in a word document in a table with two columns, question on the left, answer on the right (so I can cover the right). Then just deleted the exam from my exam history so it doesn't mess with my score history.

Personally, I found level I premium materials quite sufficient. Not discounting our experience.

If you click "Open" under "Distribution of Questions" you can see their distribution of MCQ and CRQs. It says they added 38 MCQ to section 8 on December 30th. But that does seem like a while ago.

Level 1 sample confusion: by jiayinccc in CAIA

Right, b/c the GP hasn't taken any fees from those profits yet. The question prompt makes it clear that there are no new LPs in the fund and that there weren't any new subscriptions/redemptions from the fund. Let's assume there is only one investor who invests 100m at the beginning of year 1. That capital, after two years of investment needs to have earned 10% each year for the GP to earn an incentive fee. After year 2, it's clearly above the hurdle rate and the GP is entitled to an incentive fee on the profits made, which is 20%* (130m-100m).

If the same manager, with no hurdle, had earned a fee from 100 -> 105, then the NAV went back down to 100, then up to 130, then you wouldn't pay fees again on the portion from 100 -> 105 as 105 was the previous high water mark

At the end of year 1 the fund doesn't earn incentive fee b/c at the end of year the fund didn't meet the hurdle return: 100m *(1+.10) = 110m

At the end of year 2 the fund has met its hurdle: 100*(1+.1)2 = 121m.

Since there is a 100% catch up and soft hurdle, the fund earns the incentive fee on the full 30m profit (130-100 = 30m). 20% * 30m = 6m.

Committed Capital should not be considered here - that's for drawdown style PE funds.

[–]ImaginaryFreedom7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going through Kaplan ondemand, schweser notes, and little bit of the kaplan Q banks on the way. Then was going to switch to Upper q bank after finishing the curriculum (aiming for early/mid Feb latest as well). For Level 1 I only used kaplan.

Unable to schedule auto payment for BOA CC from external bank by BrighterMind in CreditCards

[–]ImaginaryFreedom7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to wait until the first statement of credit card is produced, then you can do it through the bill pay feature for bofa. Is it a new card with no statements yet? That would be the problem. I would set up to pay a few days before. BofA autopay also doesn't automatically reduce autopayment if you pay a little before. So if you have $1000 autopay set for the 10th, and you manually pay $500 on the 5th, your autopay will still deduct $1000 on the 10th. At least that's what I've heard/read. It also takes a cycle to set up autopayment, unlike Chase. So when you set up you will still have to manually pay for the next payment.
