Sir, in the video, you have taken Fixed cost for the whole year (4,50,000) and profit for the half year (3,00,000), in order to arrive at a contribution of Rs. 7,50,000 - (denoting which period?) [Video Time Stamp: 04:42]

BEP contribution helps us recover us fixed cost MOS is beyond BEP point sales and entire contribution becomes the profit. Thats how total profit is computed.

Return on Equity Vs. Opportunity cost of capital
AFM
answered on 02-Jan-26 15:00
With respect to computation of growth rate, we have considered the "Return on equity" (i.e. 15%), whereas while applying the Gordon's dividend model formula, we have discounted the dividend using Opportunity cost of capital (i.e. 18%). Could you please explain the reason behind the same, sir? Further, Ke is denotes "cost of capital or return on equity"? [Video Time Stamp: 13:18]

ROE is accounting ratio - PAT / NW Ke - Cost of capital it is opportunity cost of capital Both are not same SGR or g = b x r here r is ROE both ROE and Ke are used in same DDM formula D1 / (Ke-g) where g is b x r In some questions ICAI has by mistake used phrase" expected Return on equity investment" in order to indicate Ke or cost of capital there you should understand the intent of the paper setter use that number as Ke and not ROE ICAI has not repeated this mistake in last few exams - however you are advised to be careful and understand the paper setter's intent before making assumptions

A ltd has joint control over B & C. i.e B & C are JVs of A : B and C are related A ltd has JV B and Associate C : B and C are related A ltd has assciates B & C : B and C are not related. Since there is no control angle in either B or C

If the return generated by Security X is less than Security Y but has a lower standard deviation, how can we decide which security should be preferred for investment? [Video Time Stamp: 02:30]

the 3rd Bit (unavoidable Fixed cost)
Costing
answered on 10-Jan-26 18:38
Sir, I tried solving this bit even before watching the video, and ended up with a right figure as answer. But with a totally different perspective. In this lecture sir solves with a perspective of recovering the avoidable cost .. i.e. 80,000 - 25,000 = 55,000. But I approached with a perspective that, anyway the unavoidable fixed cost has to be covered by operation (sales), then lets also recover the desired profit along with this unavoidable fixed cost. i.e. 25,000 + 30,000 = 55,000, and arrived at sales using PV ratio as Rs. 1,37,500. Is this approach acceptable?. Because in the first glance of the question, this is what I understood to compute. Please guide in this matter. [Video Time Stamp: 11:43]
latest answer
Yes. Its acceptable. FInally costing is all about logics.
