Clarification on taxes

We understand that some of you have already finished the exam and have others things to worry about.
However, we believe that the impact of changing the tax rate in the answer should not be at all time consuming. If you believe that the change will take you more than 15 minutes to incorporate, please state that clearly on your exam and we will take it into account.

Sorry for any inconvenience this last minute change may have caused you.

Best

Clarification on exam

Slides from today's lecture are posted on stellar.

Exam:

Please assume a tax rate of 36%. The net income given in Exhibit 1 is pre-tax.

The exam should be self explanatory and we will not be able to answer questions on an individual basis, but will post a general response should we find something systematic.

You should be fine if you state your assumptions.

Best,
Your TAs
