    Is it not the case that you pass the exam with 70% or higher? When the mean is far below 70%, GARP will adjust the threshold.

I just analyzed this question more from an accounting point of view as an impairment. The loan increases...

    I had the same answer, just because of the fact that the other choices made no sense. The 45% and 105% was not possible imo and I forget the 4th option.

    I choose that answer as well because it couldn't be bootstrapping imo. It was a small sample and there was no historic data which were used again for new data. The other two answer doesn't make sense. But with this answer I am not sure and i couldn't fully remember the question:confused:

    For me it was a normal exam and the difficulty is to compare with the practice exams from GARP. There were more theoretical questions instead of calculation questions which I shouldn’t expect upfront and I didn’t encounter strange questions in the exam, every question was recognizable and could...

When I have a yearly expected return [E(r) year - z*(sigma year/ sqrt 250) *$] given in a question how should I translate this for e.g. to a daily expected return.
