    1-Please explain how capital allowance is calculated?
    I am satisfied with the F.Y.A calculation i.e 930, but how the capital allowance and so saving are calculated?

    2-How the Real cash flow has been converted to Nominal cash i.e 52(real) convert to 54.63(nominal) and so on.
    I mean real cost of capital is given and by using the formula money=real x inflation we get 9.2%. What nominal rate is use for it and how is it calculated?

    The first capital allowance is the first year allowance of 50% of 3,100, and you are happy with this.
    This leaves a tax written down value of 6200 – 3100 = 3100, and the question says that this is claimed in equal instalments ofter three years. So for each of the next three years it is 3,100 / 3 = 1033.
    The tax saving is 30% of the capital allowance each year.

    I am sorry, but there is no mention of Black Scholes in the Blipton International question from December 2008.
