    As I do explain in my free lectures, you can’t solve it using the ‘other method’ because of the fact that losses are carried forward and reduce the taxable profit in later years (which is something that never happens in Paper FM, but often happens in Paper AFM).

    ok got it.
    but here in tippletine co question they have not added back tax allowable depreciation.
    shouldnt we be adding it back adter deducting tax?or is this the special case where we dont have to add back?

    When arriving at the cash flows in the first part of the answer, TAD has not been subtracted (the tax has been calculated separately in the workings). Given that TAD has not been subtracted in arriving at the cash flows, there is nothing to add back.
