    Greetings sir John,

    I hope you’re doing well, and I do appreciate your entire efforts for all the community sincerely.

    Scenario says : ” The lease will be over 5 years with lease payments of $146,000 annually in advance (at the start of each accounting period). Tax is payable 1 year after the accounting year-end, corporation tax rate is 25%…” and the cost of capital before-tax is 8%.

    Requirement : What is the present value of the tax relief on the lease payments, after tax ?

    My main issue here is which annuity factor to apply for years 2-6 tax relief of $146,000.
    I learned from your lectures that normally I pick AF 6 less AF 1, but solution is something else.

    Thanks for your attention.
    Yours, sincerely,

    I do not have the Kaplan Kit and so I cannot see what they have done in the answer.

    However there are two ways of dealing with an annuity from 2-6.
    One way is to take the 6 year annuity factor and subtract the 1 year factor.

    The other way is to say that it is lasting 5 years but is starting 1 year late (at time 2 instead of time 1) and so discount for one extra year. So the 5 year annuity factor multiplied by the 1 year factor.

    Both ways give the same answer (apart maybe for a slight rounding difference due to the tables only going to 3 decimal places, but rounding is irrelevant in the exam).
