    Please could you solve and explain this-

    A project is expected to generate pre-tax income of $90,000 per annum, starting in one year
    and running in perpetuity. Tax is payable 12 months in arrears at 20%. The after tax cost of
    capital is 8%.
    What is the PV of the project flows (to the nearest $000)?

    PV = 90/0.08 – {(90 × 0.2)/0.08) × 1/1.08} = 916,667

    In the answer why is it not {90/0.08 – (90 × 0.2)/0.08)} × 1/1.08

    Because the tax is payable 1 year in arrears and therefore the tax needs discounting for 1 extra year.
