    If one year delay in tax
    * if the first CF is on 1st day of accoutning period, then first tax effect is @time2

    *If first CF is on last day of accounting period , then first tax effect is @ time 1

    can you give me small example for both case.

    I understand you are doing a lot – but I have to support all students fairly

    Take a really simple example
    1000 pa – 30% tax

    In year
    /////////1 ////// 2 ///// 3
    PBT 1000/// 1000//// 1000
    Tax 300 /// 300 //// 300

    Delay a year
    The NPV becomes 4 Years
    /////////1 ////// 2 ///// //3////////4
    PBT 1000/// 1000//// 1000
    Tax 00000////300 /// 300 //// 300

    Another example:

    Pays taxation one year in arrears at an annual rate of 25%.

    Year //////////////1 ////// 2 /////// 3 ///// 4 //// 5 //// 6
    various at $000
    Cash inflows (1-5) 700.4 //721.4// 743.1 ///765.3///788.3
    Tax on cash
    inflows (2-6)//////// 175.1 //180.4 // 185.8// 191.4 // 197.1

    net cashflows (1-6) 700.4 //546.3// 562.7// 579.6//596.9//(197.1)

    Cash flow on the first day of the accounting period refers to a cash flow that occurs at the beginning of the year. It is assumed that all cash flows in the NPV question occur on the first day of an accounting period unless stated otherwise.

    On the other hand, cash flow on the last day of the accounting period refers to a cash flow that occurs at the end of the year.

    The timing of the cash flow, whether it is on the first day or the last day, determines the timing of the tax effect.

    If the first cash flow is on the first day of the accounting period, the tax effect is at Time 2.

    If the first cash flow is on the last day of the accounting period, the tax effect is at Time 1.
