Fwd: Daykin text and Feldblum Tour

Since question #45 from the 1996 exam did require the memorization of a
formula from the Daykin text, I would be cautious about assuming the
formulas do not have to be memorized.

I think the caveat applies to Feldblum as well, so I don't think the
formulas
need to be memorized.

Subject: Daykin text and Feldblum Tour

I have a question about the combination of the Daykin, et al, text and the
Feldblum tour. According to the syllabus, the formulas in Daykin are not
required to be memorized (except the accting equation and the cash flow
equation), but Feldblum quotes many of them in his guided tour.
Would you think that the caveat about memorization extends to the tour as
well,
or apply to just Daykin, with formulas in the Feldblum tour fair game?
I'd like to hear your comments.
