Explanation / Answer

Additional depreciation for 2014,2015 and 2016 is $4 million for each year. But there will be tax savings due to depreciation as well.

Now, income tax rate=income tax/pre-tax income=11.7/33.4(2016 figures)

=0.35 that is 35%

Thus, tax savings on depreciation=4*35%=$1.4 million

Reduction in net income for 2014,2015 and 2016=4-1.4=$2.6 million

Accordingly, new net income has been calculated as:

New Net Income=Net income-additional depreciation+Tax savings

Millions (year) 2013 2014 2015 2016 Net income 3 6.3 12.7 21.7 additional depreciation 0 4 4 4 Tax saving 0 1.4 1.4 1.4 NEW NET INCOME 3 3.7 10.1 19.1
