    I think there was a mistake in case 4. I think it asks you to calculate the average growth seen in the last 4 periods, add 5 percentage points and use this number to calculate how much gold coins are expected for the current year. This would make necessary to use all the avg gold coins from the previous years and the 5 percentage points, right?

    • @pankajgoyal94

      Actually not, for this you would require data points of "Y-5" and "Y-1" , to calculate CAGR ; then adding 5 p.p.

    At 12:53, why are not taking the denominator as 30 for Peasant Fortune since the total number of captures will also be increasing for the current year?

    • @aqibmaqsood1755
      @aqibmaqsood1755 Місяць тому

      No Since the chances of capture are increasing by 15% and 5% not the number of ships captured. So we need to calculate the new chance of capture of red and black flags. Previously the chance was 9/24 and 6/24. The new chance would be (9*1.15)/24 and (6*1.05)/24. We use this new chance to calculate the number of ships captured in the coming year. Again its the chances not the number of ships

  • @ahmedeissa6206
    @ahmedeissa6206 3 місяці тому

    i disagree with multiplying the 10 flights/ day by 2 for the return, since already the 10 was caluclated taking into consideration a cycle of 15 mins from the airport to the station and then another 15 mins back ( loading passengers as well) plus 1 hour charging, giving us a cycle of 1.5 hr ( 2 trips) which makes 10 trips / day.

    Hey! At 12.53 you calculate percentage of ships captured by both flags using the original attempt numbers. However, it says that the red flags are used only after the black flags, so shouldn't the chance of successful capture by red flag be out of the remaining ships 6/15*1.05 and not 6/24*1.05? and similar for the other ship as well.

  • @joshadriel
    @joshadriel 3 місяці тому

    I actually got a different conclusion, and I got the impression that Eduline is actually in UK since its on poundsterling. So there shouldn’t be issue on trajectory of US vs UK. My conclusion is as follows: Based on our analysis on the plan of Russell University acquiring Eduline, and the known information on the current market size of Eduline, along with its growth potential at 20-100%. Assuming that subs cost over 3 years period remains the same. And taking into account the upfront cost of integration and running cost of Eduline, I would recommend for Russell to acquire Eduline with a max investment value of £138,569000 (assuming min. Growth of 20%). This will nett us a BEP of 3 Years. On top of that, I would advise to take into account additional risk such as inflation, Growth potential, and cannibalisation to refine this analysis. I would also suggest a more conservative approach of partnering with Eduline for the first year, if Russell would also like to be more conservative on its approach to Eduline.
