A project requires an initial investment of $200,000 and expects to produce a cash flow before taxes of $120,000 per year for two years (i.e., cash flows will occur at t = 1 and t = 2). The corporate tax rate is 21 percent. The assets will depreciate using the MACRS year 3 schedule: (t = 1: 33%); (t = 2: 45%); (t = 3: 15%); (t = 4: 7%). The company's tax situation is such that it can use all applicable tax shields. The opportunity cost of capital is 11 percent. Assume that the asset can sell for book value at the end of the project. Calculate the approximate IRR for the project.

a company is considering two mutually exclusive projects. Both require an initial cash outlay of Rs.20000 each, and have a life of five years. The company's required rate of return is 10% and pays tax at a 35% rate. The projects will be depreciated on a straight line basis. The before taxes cash flows expected to be generated by the projects are as follows. Before tax cash flows (Rs.)

Investment in machinery receives tax allowable depreciation of 25% per annum on a straight-line basis. Allowances are receivable one year in arrears. The machinery will be sold at the end of the project for $5 million, in year 3 prices. And the answer is in the picture. How to calculate the answer of Tax Allowable depreciation?
