    This is a doubt from Q32 page 28, answer 32 page 139 of the BPP revision kit.

    For calculating the Discounting factor of the Tax on Payments why have they taken the Years 1-5 factors – the year 1 factor, and not years 1-4 factor – year 1 factor?
    Is this because tax is payable one year in arrears. My doubt is why are we using the fifth year when the lease lasts only for 4 years ?

    It is because the tax is payable in arrears – the first payment is at time 2 and the fourth payment is at time 5. So we need the annuity factor for 2-5, which is 1-5 less 1.
