yes, I did use the schweser,

Agree with the explanation.

All I get out of it, is how to compute the min and max value for both european/american.

other than that, I'm completely clueless.

well for me its more like those questions with effects on ratios due to capitalizing and expensing, financing or operating the lease...freaking mental trip!

Topics I expect not to be on the exam:

Ethics
Quantitative Methods
Economics
FRA
Equity
Fixed Income
Derivatives

Topics I expect to be heavily weighted on the exam:

corporate finance
AI
PM

Good thing I didn't study any of those crappy topics and spent all my time on AI, that's really going to drive it home for me.

(If you don't know i'm joking by now, you need a break).

Sometimes to calculate the country risk premium from sctratch they will give you the standard deviations of the foreign country's bond and stock markets.

DTL and DTA

Qualities of FS framework and all these words that you can use interchangeably... Consistent, Timeless, Transparent, Comprehensive, Relevant, Reliable, Comparable...

I know it's a big stretch, but I also hope there's no IFRS vs. GAAP.
