Dear Sir, In illus 7(a), face value has been assumed as Rs.100 though there is an issue price at Rs.90. In illus 7(b), issue price itself taken as face value. How to make the assumption?

FV is usually 10 or 100 or 1000 unless otherwise specified Issue price can be at FV or above or below it

Dear Sir, In this sum, since we know the market price at two diff yields that is at 11% and 13%, and we know that the required yield for the market price to be Rs.97.60 will lie between 11% and 13%, shall we use IRR method formula and arrive the answer. If I do so, I get Yield = 12.016% [Video Time Stamp: 03:43]

In this question, why have they not calculated the FRA amount using our settlement amount wala formula they have only calculated the numerator part while when I was solving i calculated settlement amount using our usual formual

latest answer

IN this question, they are not asking us to compute FRA settlement value - they are asking what is total cost of borrowing if an FRA is entered into and a futures contract is entered into. Even if FRA is net settled on fixing date, firm will actuall borrow for 6 months and the FV of the FRA settlement value is adjusted to int cost of eventual loan - even then you will get the same answer

In this problem, why do we account for inflation in the after-tax cash flows, which already include depreciation? Does inflation affect depreciation in this case?

Greetings Sir, Can I use the PV method for computing Market price in the last BPS changes adjustments instead of Change in Price to Change Yield Method. That is discounting by 16% and 14.5%... Because without starting this vdo I've tried doing by myself. I did discounting by adjusting the Yield value... If so how to identify where to use which method or formulae...
