Sir, in the earlier section on the impact of inflation in capital budgeting, we studied that inflation does not affect the tax benefit arising from depreciation. However, in this question, the depreciation tax shield has been adjusted for inflation while computing NPV in real terms. Could you please clarify

I have a doubt in suggested answers of Jan 26 paper of Question 2(b). In that question in ICAI suggested answer why they have taken two assumptions in two points i.e. in (i) With only 65% Utilization, growth by 40% can be achieved without any corresponding increase in Fixed Assets (65*1.4 times = 91%) and in (ii) With only 95% Utilization, growth by 40% can be achieved by corresponding increase in Fixed Assets of ` 1320 Crore (95%*1.4 times = 1.33 times of existing Fixed Assets of ` 4000 Crore). Projected Fixed Assets increase to ` 5320 Crore. My query is in first point they not increased the FA but in second point they corresspondingly increased the FA. Kindly Explain the reason for these.

Hi sir. Since we have a huge number of questions in P600, is there any strategy to pick the selected number of questions that is required to be practiced during 1st or 2nd revision. And also can the important question list be used during 1.5 days preparation?

Sir, I have a doubt regarding the determination of the optimum replacement period. Why is the cost of the new machine not considered as a factor in this decision? I believe that if the cost of the new machine remains the same across all years, it should also be taken into account while determining the optimum replacement time. Could you please clarify this point?

latest answer

If some is common across all years would you not eliminate it? When finding out eac we are trying to compare opex and not capex as capex is common

Reason why profit remains same under delivery based transaction and net cash settlement

AFM

answered on 07-Mar-26 16:20

1 .Delivery based transaction - Arbitrage method: Today - Buy shares at Rs. X & enter into short futures at Rs. Y Expiry Date - Receive proceeds of Rs. Y by delivering the share Profit/loss = Rs. Y - Future value of Rs. X 2. Net Cash Settlement: Today - Buy shares at Rs. X & enter into short futures at Rs. Y Expiry Date - Close the futures by net cash settlement (i.e. Rs. Y minus spot price as on expiry date = Gain/loss on FC) Expiry Date - Sell off the shares in cash market at spot price (i.e. Spot price minus Future value of Rs. X = gain/loss on sell of shares) If we see these 2 gains in together mathematically, spot price gets eliminated and finally the Gain/loss = Rs. Y - Future value of Rs. X. Am I correct, sir?
