Adjusted Present Value, which Tax?

Hi guys,

is it appropriate to use the average tax rate when computing the cash flows of an investment project? (e.g. in the Adjusted Present Value-Approach)
When the tax rate changes because of the capital structure of your business (e.g. M&A), you shouldn't use the old tax rate,you should use eather the average or an estimated future tax rate, is this right?!

Thank you guys!
Greetings from Germany

Hi Maurice,

This is a tough question but if I had to guess I would say that if tax rate changes because of the capital structure you should use the new tax rate, not the old. I would double check with an accountant though to clarify!
