Hello

I know alot of us have busy schedules work full time, but we need to make out time to help each other and in helping each other we help ourselves. I want to reiterate something that the CFA level global pass rate was 40% but the Africa pass rate is 28% so the better prepared we all are the better for all us cause God willing I don't want to take level 1 twice as mathematically possible as it may be.

We need to raise the bar.  The website attached below really helped me alot organising myself. http://cfathoughts(dot)blogspot(dot)com/

I have a couple of subjects that I have issues with but there are very few people I can reach out to here in Nigeria. So the sooner we start posting topic specific  questions on CFA the better for all us.

We don dey reach crunch time oh.

 So people may say I am being paranoid but I believe that it is better to have a gun and not need it  Cool than to need a gun and not have it  Grin

Cheers

Lets get this party Started

The probability that the economy will fall into a recession in any one year is 25%. Determine the probability that the economy will experience a recession in 1 out of 4 years and determine the expected number of recessions that will occur in 4 years.

a. 25% probability of recession and 1 recession in the next four years.
b. 25% probability of recession and 4 recessions in the next four years.
c. 42% probability of recession and 2 recessions in the next four years.
d. 42% probability of recession and 1 recession in the next four years.

(d)

.25 ^ 1 * .75 ^3 * (4Cr1) = .42 == 42%

Which of the following statements regarding the methods of revenue recognition is most accurate?

A) The completed contract method is used when the selling price or cost estimates are unreliable.
B) The completed contract method, in comparison to the percentage-of-completion method, will generally result in higher net income.
C) The percentage-of-completion method is primarily used in contracts that have short lives.
D) The percentage-of-completion method generally results in lower retained earnings than the completed contract method.

A trader enters into a short position of 20 futures contracts at an initial futures price of 85. Initial margin, per contract is N7.50. Maintenance margin per contract is N7.00. Each contract is for one unit of the underlying asset. Over the next three days the contract settles at N86, N84.25, and N85.5. Assuming the trader does not withdraw any funds from his/her margin account during the period, but does post variation margin sufficient to meet any maintenance margins calls, the balance in the margin account will be

A $150.00 at initiation and $140.00 at settlement on Day 3
B $150.00 at initiation and $150.00 at settlement on Day 3
C $150.00 at initiation and $165.00 at settlement on Day 3
D $140.00 at initiation and $150.00 at settlement on Day 3

Hello.
Please i am highly interested in taking the CFA exams but i don't seem to be having the right information. people said its only taken in South Africa and Ghana.
i have tried their website but that is not too helpful.
basically what i want to know includes:
1 - the stages and the possible exemption if any (i recently became an Associate of the CIBN)
2 - possible lectures places in Nigeria.
3. Fees and mode of payment.
4. other related issues like what constitute a pass; can i phase the exams or must i complete at a stretch with no breaks.

i would deeply appreciate answers please. my contacts are 08056071913, atopeaceland@yahoo.com and this thread.
thank you
