Got it- Cash Flows.
It seems common sense to me. Draw up a table with columns for year 1, year 2, year 3.... year 7 along the top. Down the side have rows for outlay/depreciation, interest, tax, sales and costs.
Sales- $1.5 million each year
Costs- $939,500 each year
Interest- $112,500 pa
depreciation- year 1 it's 14.29% of $2,435,700 ; then work out year 2 etc (not sure if it's based on full $2435700 each year or on that figure minus previous year's depreciation-look at your notes!)
Surplus before tax each year=sales-(depreciation +costs + interest)
Net cash flow each year=surplus less 34%
Just a common sense calculation from someone who can add up but hasn't studied this.
