26 January 2010 the future cash flows are discounted to the present value using the required rate of return.
which rate of return should be taken for this purpose, before tax or after tax?

thanks

27 January 2010 required rate of return shall be equal to cost of capital.

cost of capital is considered after tax.

So the rate of return shall be taken after tax for computing the Present value of cash flow after tax.
