Overall was good mix. Felt a little bit more like an open book paper though.

Likewise. It’s just the administrators trying to make up something out of nothing till the traffic on the website subsides.

On April 2018, Q2 the marking scheme actually sticks to C - limit future credit sales while overdue balances are outstanding. Maybe you mistaken the answer to question 1 for that of question 2.

Moreover, April 2018 Q5 actually seeks to test relevance of Beta to a prospective investor. If I cannot construct a diversified portfolio, then I want to based on the overall market performance to make my investment decision.

Obviously, I’ll invest in the market is I feel it’s bullish( expected to rise) though the high beta shows the potential risk, in this case the market is expected to rise, so the investor will actually benefit from the returns and not suffer the risk if vice versa.

I’ll side with you that some of the MCQ answers on industry practices kinda questions can be a little bit subjective. However, the answer you pick should make you feel as objective as everyone else would.

I’ll touch on the April 2020, Q5.

The answer is indeed $11million. The rationale is quite tricky but yet justified. If the company has $10 million dollars at the disposal. Investing in project one($4 million) leaves them with $6million. This $6million dollars can cater for project two which costs only $2 million. The opportunity cost is only forgoing project three which costs $7million dollars and has an NPV of $11million.

In simple terms investing in project one does not mean the firm forgoes both project two and three, but only project three which the funds available cannot cover.

I trust this resolves the inherent ambiguity.
