First year you buy 120 bottles + 6 every month.
So that is 120 in the beginning of the year, but 192 at the end of the year.

Hi there,
the author looks at it from end of Year 1 perspective: start with 120 and add 6 bottles every month → 120 + 6*12 = 192 bottles at end of Y1.
Hope this helps.
Regards, Andi

Does rejection from the McKinsey and Company case workshop hinder my ability to apply for the open roles in London, and will I be subject to the 12-month waiting period?

Hi I work as a private equity / M&A lawyer in London considering a shift to MBB. My attraction stems from the more commercial / strategic thinking I believe consulting will give me and I can later leverage that to either pivot to (i) industry; or (ii) private equity. Thoughts?
