Sir, 1. While calculating the taxation why did we have to exclude interest from the profit ? The interest on loan was not included in the operating profit anyway. The interest on loan was later showed separately then why was the taxation charged as (operating profit – interest) * tax rate ?!
2. Would it be a wrong proforma if I deducted investement on current assets first and then subtracted interest ?
1. You are asked for the free cash flow to equity, and so interest is subtracted. Interest is allowable for tax and so it is deducted before calculating the tax.
2. I assume you actually mean investment in non-current assets. If so then it would be wrong. The investment is not tax-allowable, only the depreciation is tax allowable.
