Example 2 – Nairobi & Delhi
Help – don’t understand the cash flows in the answer π
year 1: 28 v 35
year 2: 35 v 42
year 3: 40 v 47
year 4: 45 v 52
year 5: 200 v 207
The extra 7 is the after-tax synergy benefit.
Sorry John but my brain does not seem in gear – how is the 7 calculated?
The synergistic benefits per the question are 10 p.a. There is tax at 30%. So the after-tax benefit is 10 – (30% x 10) = 7 p.a.
Brain definitely was not in gear – additionally I was reading 10% increase pa π
Thanks
You are welcome π
