    Hello Mr. John,
    I just want to confirm from you about the treatment of the below line.

    ” An investment equivalent to the amount of depreciation to keep its non-current assets base at the present productive capacity.The current dep vharge already included in the operating profit margin is 25% of the non current assets of $50 million. ”

    Acc to me,
    We dont reduce the TAD amount from operating profit. Neither we add back the amount after calculation of cash flow after tax.

    Kindly advice.

    Wishing you good health.

    We do reduce the operating profit by the amount but we do not add back the TAD.

    But in the answer,TAD has not been reduced from operating profit. Tax is calculated on
    Sales. 48600
    Less interest. (3500)
    = 45100
    Less tax(45100*25%). 11275

    Kindly advice me.

    The 48,600 is the operating profit and the question states (in note 2 under ‘expected income and cash flow commitments…..’) that the depreciation has already been included in arriving at the operating profit.
