  我每天带上一门的书与讲义,摇摇晃晃的挤地铁,再挤电梯,一门一门KEY着,有同事路过总会惊讶的说,咦,你怎么还在写这个啊?
  周围的每一个没有过CPA的人都在看书,特投入,特安静,除了我,鱼对我说,我觉得你还沉浸在ACCA过了的喜悦中,我说不是。我在打这些的时候,倒是充满了回忆知识的痛苦呵呵,走上ACCA的路只是一个契机,这个契机给了我很多,也让我失去了很多,我想当青春背上一个重担时,脚步难免踯躅,只是在结束的那一刻,我总想留下些什么,给自己的这段路做个交代。
  开始3.7吧,还是以REVISION上面的分类整理
  这门初看的时候觉得很复杂,因为涉及到很多金融工具,投资融资及期货期权的问题,在工作中基本接触不到,而且这门基本上是CORE PAPER中通过率做低的一门。复习下来会发现,题目都会很典型,把题型摸透了,还是比较容易上手。因为我在看题目的时候,会把当时看下来的感受写在题目旁边,所以我会把我当初看的时候觉得思路特清楚可以多看看的的几道题标出来,简称清楚题:)
  几个重点理论:NPV,discount rates, free cash flows, CAPM, portfolio theory.
  A Objectives and strategy formulation
  清楚题 04/6 Wurrall:很清楚,蛮全的,可以多看几次
  99/6 Hanme: APPENDIX的计算可以再看看,用来练手
  01/12 Wickern:挺清楚的,可以再看
  03/12 Snowwell: 挺清楚的,可以再看
  关于财务战略的题,以前的考试也都考过,但现在多些文字,再多些RATE的计算,拿下:)
  Turnover
  (operating costs before depreciation)
  Balance
  (Tax allowable depreciation)
  Earning before interest and tax
  (Net interest payable)
  Profit on ordinary activities before tax
  (Tax on ordinary activities)
  Profit after tax
  (Dividends)
  Amount transferred to reserves
  会要求写假设
  再写假设的局限
  其实这样的题型比较完整的应该是出现在PART E里,我再后面会再提及,这个部分还是比较侧重于财务管理的一些常规公式:profitability, gearing, liquidity ,working capital, stock market
  B Investment decisions and risk analysis
  清楚题 99/6 Tovell: APPENDIX的计算可以再看看
  00/12 Fuelit:挺好的,弄明白了,看看
  04/6 Zendeck:纯关于WACC
  03/6 Hasder: 多看看,与98/6Phantom放在一起看,理解公式
  04/12 Trosoft:挺好,多看看,APV
  简单整理:
  ⑴Time value of money: FV=PV*(1 n)n
  ⑵Discount factor:题目给,或者(1 r)-n
  ⑶Annuities:
  PV of deferred annuity=annual cash flow*annuity factor*PV factor
  ⑷Perpetuities:
  PV of a perpeturity=P0=annual cash flow/discount rate
  ⑸NPV:
  时间1 时间2 时间3时间4
  Receipts:
  Payments:
  (wages)
  (materials)
  (variable/fixed overheads)
  (administration/distribution expenses)
  (capital allowances/tax allowable depreciation)
  Taxable profits(EBIT)
  (Tax)
  Add back: capital allowances/tax allowable depreciation

  可考虑的factor: social responsibility, risk, technical, economic, fiscal, CAPM limitation, reliability, sensitivity analysis,
  未来的现金流不包括沉没成本,非现金支出(折旧等),在做决定前已经发生的费用支出等。
  ⑹Fisher equation: (1 money rate)=(1 real rate)*(1 general inflation rate)
  ⑺WACC= Ke*E Kd(1-t)*D
  E D E D
  注意其他的相关公式如Ke \Kd \real rate的计算及相关的assumption: inflation rate 等等
  ⑻EVA=NOPAT-capital employed*cost of capital
  注意EVA的优缺点
  ⑼Dividend valuation model: P0=D0(1 g)
   Ke-g
  注意相关的assumption
  ⑽the returns on a two-asset portfolio: Rp=RaXa RbXb
  the risk on a two-asset portfolio:δp=√δ2aX2 δ2b(1-x)2 2x(1-x)Pabδaδb
  correlation coefficient=COVab/δaδb
  ⑾Modigliani and Miller’s theory: MVg= MVu Dt
  ⑿CAPM: required return=risk free return systematic risk premium
  注意assumption/limitation

  02/6 NTC:结合上题所附方法,多做几遍
  02/12 与上题同理,结合看
  99/12 HYK 思路很清楚,用来加强巩固
  01/12 Shawter 三种避险工具的利弊,挺好的
  Foreign exchange risk: transaction risk/economic risk/translation risk
  Hedge避险工具: Forward market/ Money market/Futures/currency options
  这部分题型比较固定,但也比较容易记乱了,多练练就好,就把每个类型中我复习时觉得比较特别的点拎出来
  Forward market:payment:找最小的rate/receipts:找最大的rate
