1. On pages 114 and 115 it shows the return calculation. Exhibit 4 shows that the trust payment increasing with inflation, so why do you need to add the annual inflation rate to the needs in year 2 / net investable assets at the end of year 1?
2. On pages 131-132 with the Fairfax return calculation, where does the $658,000 on the top of page 132 come from? I understand the numbers before it作者: CPATrader 时间: 2013-4-3 20:32
To clarify on question 2 I posted.
Isn’t the return objective given in the problem? (3% real, after tax). Why are you calculating the return needed on the total assets when you assume that the closely held stock doesn’t change in value?作者: Analyze_This 时间: 2013-4-3 20:35
Also, with regard to the risk objective, how do we know that 10% nominal loss in a 12 month period is below average? What is considered average and above average?作者: Howd 时间: 2013-4-3 20:37
This is a pretty important topic. Anyone have any input?
