Past year paper (7 Sept 2018) Q1 (a)

Hi, under the sample answer working 2, I understand that the 2,436 is calculated by 2,400 x 101.5% after taking into account the Japanese annual inflation rate of 1.5%. How about the subsequent 2,576 and 314? Thank you.

The revenue ignoring inflation at time 3 is 2,500 (from the question). With 2 years inflation at 1.5%, the cash inflow will be 2,500 x 1.015^2 = 2,576 The revenue ignoring inflation at time 4 is 300 (from the question). With 3 years inflation at 1.5%, the cash inflow will be 300 x 1.015^3 = 314.
