How much would you sell your charter if you had the option to?

At least $4.7MM.

Are you saying the CFA will gross you 400,000 after tax each year? I need to move to Canada – you guys cool with African Americans (besides Drake) up there?

Wait … you’re African-American?
When you move to Canada, will you then be African-Canadian, or African-American-Canadian?

How else would you value the charter? What sort of equity valuation or fixed income technique would you use?

Guesstimating that my current position (which requires the Charter) pays about 60k more than another general finance-related position for someone with the same education/background but without the Charter – AND assuming I’ll be in the workforce for another 30 years… Keeping it simple (without accounting for different levels of raises/bonuses, or discounting back to 2016), I’d calculate the Charter’s FV to me as:
n = 30 i = 3% PV = 0 PMT = 60k THEREFORE, FV = $2,854,524.94

I had no problems with your choice of valuation method. As I clearly state, my issue is with your estimate of post-tax incremental revenue the Charter grosses you per year. I find it hard to believe the Charter adds nearly half a million to your income every year. Also, not sure why you used a discount rate of 8%. Shouldn’t this be along the line of inflation?

I`ll sell it for a 30 year job contract that offers 15 k a month and I still keep my knowlege and use it for personal investment. I dont feel like I`m passing the Cali bar test this exam is a bit overrated in my opinion no offense..

I agree with you Calvinoh.. the exam is overrated; personally, I can consider myself successful - having worked in IB in NY for 6 years, now a PE manager in Boston.. I don’t think I will make extra pay with the charter. Many of my colleagues who got the charter in the recent times (2011 onwards) have not received any extra pay for it. When you hit 30s, its no longer a case of monetary value but pride-value; just finishing it because you started it.

So you won’t sell it for anything less than $180k/yr for 30 years guaranteed (amounting to $5.4M) and you think it’s “a bit overrated”? That makes sense… And don’t come back with “I never said I wouldn’t sell it for anything less…” because in that case you might as well have said $100 billion…
