March/ June 2018 Sample Paper Question 2

PPadraigmc136y ago
In the solution for question 2 there is a calculation for tax relief lost in the financing side effects Can you explain the basis for this-is it on account of a delay in 1 year of paying tax? Thanks

Yes. Because of the 1 year delay the tax relief lost is from years 2 to 5 (instead of 1 to 4) and therefore the discount factor is the 5 year annuity factor less the 1 year factor.
