Hi sir
plz tell me how TDa is calculated?
when we calculate TDA we calculate tax allowable dep. and then calculate tax saving on it???
There is different???
May 23, 2015 at 2:26 pm #248163To deal with tax you can do either of two things:
Calculate the tax on the net operating cash flows (ignoring depreciation).
The bring in the tax saving as a result of the depreciation.
(which is the way you have written).The alternative is to subtract depreciation for the cash flows to calculate the taxable profit
Calculate tax on the taxable profit
Then add back the depreciation (because it is not a cash flow).Both approaches will give the same final cash flows.
