Hi, I am practicing exercises in revision kit, I realize that the tax effect on scrap value is ignored I wonder it is a kind of taxable revenue, so it should be taxed and the effect must be considered in cash flows. P/s: I did watch all of your lectures, I can’t recall if you explain this anywhere. Could you please explain this thing to me. Thank you so much!!!
I do explain the treatment of sale proceeds in my free lectures on investment appraisal with tax.
In the year of sale we subtract the sale proceeds from the tax written down value. The difference is either a balancing allowance or a balancing charge.
