Hi, sir in the past question March/Jun-2021 Question 2 Robson.
When calculating the tax shield on the subsidized loan the examiner used df 9%, I wonder why what is reasoning behind it? shouldn't we calculate Kd and use it?
Ask the Tutor ACCA AFM
Robson
The tax shield is discounted either at the normal cost of borrowing (which is the 9% on the bank loan) or at the risk free rate. The examiner always accepts either (as is stated in the examiners answer). I explain the reason for this in my free lectures on APV.
