Leo LLP has noted that there is a risk of exchange rate fluctuations making their purchases unviable. The CFO has declared that the only way to mitigate this risk is via hedging and that they should look at price fixing. is this correct? A. yes- hedging is the only solution to mitigate the risk of adverse price movements B. yes- this reduces the risk to 0 C. no- Leo LLP could do nothing and increase its prices instead D. no- Leo LLP can take out insurance to mitigate this risk Answer: C Explanation: The correct answer is 3 'no Leo LLP could do nothing and increase its prices instead'. Firstly the CFO is wrong. There are other ways to mitigate this risk than hedging- hedging isn't the ONLY thing you can do. Therefore you automatically need to discount options that begin with yes. Then looking at the options that begin with no, insurance isn't going to help in this situtation. Therefore, by process of elimination you will be left with 'no Leo LLP could do nothing and increase its prices instead'. This question is taken from p.95 - there is a section here describing alternatives to hedging. When dealing with currency fluctuations, an alternative to fixing a price is to build in a margin on your own prices. This margin acts as a buffer for if prices go up- your price can remain the same. Other alternatives to hedging suggested by CIPS include; negotiating long term contracts, buying out the supplier and ingredient substitution Question: 30 Which of the following will you put into box 3?

Select THREE A. fraudulent activity B. attrition of key employees C. uncontrolled expenditure D. increased market share E. a high financial ratio Answer: A,B,C Explanation: 1 2 and 3 are factors which can lead to a supplier becoming insolvent. 4- increased market share is a good thing, as it indicates the supplier is doing better than their rivals. A high financial ratio is also a good thing as it shows they have more assets than debt - so this is not a sign of insolvency. See p.24 for 'Supplier Risks' Question: 34 A black swan event is what type of occurrence?

This YouTube video explains it all perfectly using the chance that an ice- cream cone is broken. It's a nice memorable example to help you remember what binomial distribution is and how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3EZbX2ftCUk - it's a very memorable example and really helped me.
