    Hello Sir, for PYQ Sept 2018 Q1 Washi Co,
    Why the initial investment in year 0 that start in 1 year time do not discounted at present value which is time 0 (now)? (DCF@12%) (0.893)

    Thank you.

    The examiners wording is a bit confusing.

    If you did have the initial investment at time 1 (and therefore all the other flows 1 year later than in the answer), then you would still get the marks.

    What if I follow the examiner format which write the project year rather than time 1,but still discount the initial investment back to present value, will consider no mark?
    Thank you.
