With regards to the capital allowance of the construction cost, the first year should amount to 930 mil pounds, right…?
However should we assume this tax savings to occur at the end of Year 1 or Year 2…?
thanks…
November 21, 2014 at 1:21 pm #211912Sir, hopefully my queries answered…thanks…~
November 21, 2014 at 2:24 pm #211948Yes – the tax saving on the first capital allowance is 930M
Tax is payable in the year the flow arises and to the first saving is at time 1.
November 22, 2014 at 7:38 pm #212272Sir, with respect to this same question , how was the nominal cash flows figures arrived at in part (a) in the Return phase.
Real cash flows 52 490 2242 928 928
Nominal cash flows 54.63 527.68 2474.75 1049.95 1076.20 ??November 23, 2014 at 10:51 am #212347The real flows have been inflated at 2.5% per year to get the nominal cash flows.
The first flow (52) is in 2 years time, so 2 years inflation is 52 x 1.025^2 = 54.63
Similarly for the other flows.
November 23, 2014 at 12:04 pm #212387Hi all,
When we use purchase power parity theory to forecast exchange rate, we have to correctly identify the home country and the foreign country, right…?
Just wondering in this question, between UK and US, which is the home country and which is the foreign country…?…is there any indicator in the question on this…??

uuuu: I have answered the same question asked by you elsewhere a few minutes ago – please do not post the same question twice.
airyami: the quote tells you which way the currency is being quoted. In Blipton you do not actually need to change the quote by inverting – you can either multiply by the given quote or divide by the inverted quote. It gives the same result!
