I have been looking on WSO and on Google in general for a good collection of "pen and paper" interview questions for IB and PE. By this I don't mean a longer-type question like a paper LBO, but the classic accounting questions like "what happens if depreciation goes down by 10" etc.
Would be awesome if monkeys would share questions in this vein that they have come across - would be especially helpful if PE related.
