    hello john

    please see Dec 12 Q1a

    in this question we calculated market value of debt by discounting the cash flows.

    however we used cash flows as 5.2 which is 5.2% of 100

    why didnt we take tax into account? the cash flows should be 5.2(1-t)

    when do use tax

    please explain

    The market value of debt is always the PV of the future receipts (5.20 per year, and then the reception) discounted at the investors required rate of return.
    Tax is of no relevance – company tax affects the company, not the investor.

    This is all explained in my free lectures on the valuation of securities for Paper FM (because this is revision from Paper FM).
