    Okay this one is driving me crazy. I prepped for the retake with WTB, but when I did becker there was this one question on factoring… I NEED to know how to do this question on factoring.

    Get note, hold for x months at y rate, sell/factor to 3rd party at z rate. What is the net or something like that, for those who have becker, do you know which chapter this is in? I'd like to look it up.

    thanks in advance!

    PS – ventura – I don't understand your question

    AUD - 75*, 88 done 5/14! (*exp)
    BEC - 74 , 77
    REG - 65 , 76 (10 point combooo!!)
    FAR - 69 , 75

    @KNMCPA and @ rigouventura–it's not over til the fat lady sings! I felt the same way you did after my second AUD exam, cried my eyes out afterwards and headed to the pool hall. I was so upset I couldn't even go pick up my kids yet. I passed and you will too!

    @ zieba

    I think what you're referring to is in F4 on page 19

    AUD- 97 1x
    REG- 81 1x
    BEC- 79 1x
    FAR- 88 1x

    DONE!

    10/1/12 to 2/28/14

    you are going to catch flak for disclosing things on the exam, so feel free to edit out your post.

    FV minus disposal sounds like NRV to me, and PFS are valued at FV so I'd say no.

    zieba, I am not sure if you are asking about factoring your accounts receivables or of selling a note receivable. I'm thinking its the latter since that is a more complicated calculation. Is it this:

    If I have a $100,000 note from a customer at 10% interest rate payable in six months, and I hold it for two months and then sell it to the bank (because I need cash now); the bank offers to pay me 12% interest for the note, how much cash do I receive?

    Step 1: determine total value of note: Add to Face value: (100K x .10 x 6/12) = 105,000

    Step 2: determine bank interest: (105,000 x .12 x 4/12) = 4,200

    Step 3: subtract 1 from 2 = Proceeds received from bank: 100,200

    this is in Beckers chapter 4 (pg 19 as someone previously said). “factoring” of receivables is in chapter 4 as well, on page 16.

    REG - Nov 4, 2013: 88
    FAR - Feb 27, 2014: 86
    AUD - April 5, 2014: 91
    BEC - May 6, 2014: 83

    Thanks a lot Quinacridone! It was indeed factoring. Now I got it. Kind of, did you make a mistake on your months?

    PS – REG was November 2013, right?

    *GASP* I think I may be addicted to A71!! It's like Facebook, i have to check every time i'm near a computer.

    Good luck to all those taking their tests tomorrow!! Just remember to breathe and focus. You know the information you just need to bring it to the front of your mind.

    Also one more suggestion, use the AL when you get to the SIMS even if its not a research question. I was unsure about how to calculate something and found the instructions in the Codification.
