Hii shruti.

I have been doing factoring from the Study material / PM itself. I find the combination of these 2 is mostly succesful. If you have attended any classes you can always use your own classes notes and then pm. :)

Haha...lucky you Rajesh. if i wouldve got 58 i would be CA CS by now. lol.

Jokes apart according to me SM/PM is the best combination plus if u have attended any classes then your personal notes would also be required.

There are several good guides nothing beats learning of the study material which has highly improved in quality over the last year

Dear Shruti,

Refer Practise manual /Study Material with RTP (of last 2 attempt) .

Its important to understand the concept of factoring rather than doing so many questions

Dear Kajal,

While calculating investament in receivable we have to consider ACP and cost of investment .

In this question 40% customer pays the debt in 10 days while the rest in 90 days which means ACP =(0.4*10+0.6*90) 58 Days

Now the projected sale is 1000 crore and according we have to calculate investment in debtors but finance company invest in debtor via mix debt and hence we have to calculate the cost of mix debt which comes to 13.60%

And finaly we will calculate cost of investement in receivable

Hope it will help you out
