Hi,

Regarding the calculation of the 50 and 200 day moving average, why does the calculation start on the 31/12/2020, ie cell B215 and calculate the average back from here as opposed to the 02/01/2021 ie cell B216?

Many thanks,

Darragh
 
Hi Darragh

ActEd produce an alternative solution in our ASET document and in this, we started the moving average at 02/01/2021. Either approach is fine and would not have lost you marks in the exam.

Remember the examiners' solution is just one possible approach. You may find it useful to look through the marking schedule included with the Examiners' Report to see what you needed to do to score marks for each part of the question.

Best wishes
Sarah
 
Thanks Sarah for that. Just a quick one - what is the ASET document? Are these the acted past paper sols you can buy?

Regards,
Darragh
 
They are the ActEd Solutions and Exam Technique - we go through the past IFoA papers, explain how to arrive at the spreadsheet solution, suggest key things to consider in the audit trail and summary documents (in P2). We also include the marking schedule and give our own solutions (spreadsheets and other documents). For CP2 this is currently the papers in 2020-2022 (6 exam sittings, 2 papers for each sitting).

Have a look here for general ASET information:

Thanks
