Pre-tax profit = V (3000 - 1800) - 280420 = 1200V - 280420
Post tax profit = 0.65 x [1200V - 280420]
This must be equal to: 0.2 x V x 3,000 = 600V
0.65[1200V - 280420] = 780V - 182273 = 600V
180V = 182273
V = 1012.63
Revenue = 1012.63 x 3000 = 3037883
Check: pretax profit = 3037884 - 1012.63 x 1800 - 280420 = 934729
post tax profit = 934729 x 0.65 = 607574
20% revenue = 20% 3037883 = 60758
ie the same except for rounding errors.
