When calculating the total cash flows do you have to reduce the synergistic benefits by the tax rate?
i.e. year 1 = 20+8+(10*0.7) =35?
When I calculated the cash flows I just added Nairobi plus Delhi plus benefits of 10 p.a. but my answers were 3m higher than the answers given?
Thanks

It is assumed that the synergy benefits are pre-tax (I should have really written this in the question).

Sorry – it is a typing error and I will have it corrected.
The gain should be 177 – 170 = 7 (not 4)
