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)
time 0? what does it mean CF on first day of accounting period and last day ?
It means to is today
t1 is the end of this first year and so on
The only things that will be in to will be
Investments
WC in advance
Lease payments in advance
etc
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.
