Probably accounting questions. How would you explain an accrual to someone, when would you do x y z, how to depreciate assets, capitalization of assets maybe, operating leases, could be anything

Any examples of that xyz lol. I’m fairly comfortable with the rest

Depends on the industry and role. If you are doing corporate long term planning versus product/business line FP&A you could have a very different job. Revenue recognition in SaaS is a key item in tech. Life sciences has a completely different revenue model as well. Get smart on the revenue model for the company you are interviewing with.

It’s Nike lol so should be pretty straightforward with wholesale, retail and DTC

Why do you want to leave IB for FP&A? Lifestyle?

Don’t do it

GM it red

Wow Nike. Dope exit opp OP. Don’t have an answer but best of luck

Fishes, happy new year! Targeting to go back to India in 5 years - figuring out what needs to be done professionally and financially. Professionally, I can stay on course and become partner but don't know what exit options in India would be like. Probably not even worth going through the grind now. So thinking of moving to industry although I like consulting. Thoughts? Financially, already have 2 cr worth assets in India and planning to have 5 cr more by the time I leave. Thoughts?

Round or exact numbers on banners/LPs? I was curious about this since in negotiations for example or pricing it's better to have the exact number.

Anyone has seen any impact on conversion rates?
