to be honest finance wasn't that bad and the $$$ are seriously very close to swaying me away from accounting as a profession.
:eek: please tell me where the $$$ in finance are better than accounting because I will be there in a flash

unfortunately I haven't seen any evidence of this in the past 3 years

re: the case study...

....has indicated that Harry's current annual wage of $65K should be included as an expense in the analysis because he will be the manager.

then a note....salary remains the same regardless of whether or not the project proceeds.

So do I add Harry's wage under cash flows over the life or not. {65000*(1-0.3)} = -45,500.

appreciate any help.

Donski - I'd suggest going to FinPal for your questions on the case study.
I got extremely good answers from the FinPal leader- even though they are not really meant to help you too much.

what, really? I was told otherwise, to include Harry's wage - its relevant....if the project proceeds, he will be the manager for this project and no longer captain. SO CONFUSING.

"salary remains the same regardless of whether or not the project proceeds"
One of the rules of capital budgeting- is there a cash flow when undertaking the project?

Ooh, too late.

I did International Business as my core option but since the requirments have changed from 2005, I might have to do Finance.

Not looking forward to it!
