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.
