Hi, On example 2 and 5 where is the (288) for replacement of non-current assets coming from? On example 3 to calculate the WACC why havent we taken the Kd to be 7% x .75 for the tax saving? Thanks

If you look at the pro-forma immediately above example 2 in the lecture notes, you will see that we always assume that the amount needed to replace non-current assets is equal to the depreciation, unless told otherwise. The depreciation here is 288. In example 3, the question says that the cost of debt is 7%. Since it is called the cost of debt, it is already after dealing with the tax saving.
