sir, For calculation of PV of tax shield on interest, in Kaplan text book it was said that , all financing cash flows are low risk they are discounted at either - k(d) or - risk free rate my question is does this K(d) indicate rate of normal borrowing or subsidised loan????

Normal rate (pre-tax, of course).

December 2006 Tampem Inc, Requirement a Sir, In calculation of tax saving on tax allowable depreciation, in 4th year (which is last year) examiner have calculated TAD based on "applying 25% on WDV" but shouldn't it be calculated by "deducting realisable value from WDV" Can you please check this out and explain me the reason????

It is because of note (ix) in the question - it says that the value is after tax as a continuing operation. So the investment is not actually being sold (it is a continuing operation) and the amount is after any tax implications.
