The final exam is scheduled for Saturday, May 10th at 10:00 AM in room 241. The final exam will be 50 to 100 multiple choice style questions. As always, please bring your photo ID, pencils, Scan-tron answer sheet, and calculator. The final is cumulative but I will give emphasis to Chapter 16 / Analyzing Income Producing Properties. The final is not mandatory as I take your three highest examination grades out of four. If you are happy with your existing three exam scores, you do not have to take the final.
As described in the syllabus, there is a bonus opportunity on the final exam. I refer to the bonus as the "Investment Problem." Here is how it works. After you complete the final exam, I will have a copy of an Investment Problem ready. You just tell me that you would like to try the Investment Problem.
An example of the "Investment Problem" is on our website near the Chapter 16 materials. The problem is a three year discounted cash flow analysis problem for a small income producing property.
After the final exam, you are given just the Investment Problem assumptions and you need to work through the problem with just your calculator and a pencil (no formulas provided!).
If you are up for a challenge, check it out. It will take some work and lots of practice. There are video clips reviewing an Investment Problem on our website, but if you would like to see me go over an investment problem in-person please come to room 241 at 8 AM this Friday morning (April 25th).
Also, don't forget that all TVM Tutorials are due this Saturday, April 26th.

Will tomorrow's exam be closer to 50 or to 100 questions? :-)
Cora, Since it is a comprehensive final, I would say that the more questions the better.
Very last minute question. I just read on the class website that the final starts at 8am. But this post says 10. If you happen to get this can you confirm 10 to ease my mind.
You can start at 8 AM or 10 AM.
