Eid Greetings and more…

I wish all my students a very happy Eid holidays. Enjoy life with a decent limit. Don’t get carried away. Stay attached to your studies, please. The semester just started, you are not even half way to the semester!

ACT201 students: Please read as much as you can and practice chapter-end problems to have an extra edge in class. This is a very good opportunity for the non-accounting background students to make themselves familiar with accounting terms and procedures. And don’t forget to bring the 1st assignment!

FIN254 students: Although the 2nd assignment is yet to be given formally in class, I am making it available now to help you practice for the coming exam. It includes questions 13 to 16, 26 & 27 from chapter-end questions and problems of chapter 3. Please read the chapters thoroughly and practice more and more questions and problems to be ahead in the game.

Best of luck to all of you.

Eid Mubarak.

A Session of Q/A

Mushtahir Aziz wrote: 

Sir what is 'Porishodhito' capital in share market. Suppose a new brokerage house has to pay 7.5 mil tk for its 1st 3 branches and 5 mil for each of the next ones as 'porishodhito' capital.what does it mean?

Dear Mushtahir:

The synonymous English phrase for 'Porishodhito Capital' is 'Paid-up Capital'. It is the amount that the owner(s) contribute(s) in the firm. In other words, it is the amount of capital that has been paid by the owner(s) of a firm or the shareholders of a corporation.

According to your example, the owner(s) must contribute (invest in the firm as equity capital)  7.5 mil tk to establish 1st 3 branches of a brokerage house and additional 5 mil for each additional branch.

Thanks.

Grades!

Dear students:

A lot of you showed concerns to know your grades. According to NSU policy, I cannot post the grades, the department can. I submitted your grades to the department. Now it's upto the department how they will inform you your grades.

If you are very desperate to know your grade from me, just let me know your details (nsu id, full name, course with section, and your email address). I can share the unconfirmed grade with you. The reason I am calling this unconfirmed is that the department still reserves the right to revise the grade until they share it with you.

Thanks and best regards.
