Answer:

After tax cash flow    $44,281.60

After tax cash flow   ($30,518.40)

After tax cash flow   $8856.32

Explanation:

In the first case when the interest income of $74,800 ,the after-tax cash flow would be taxed as follows"

before tax cash flow   $74,800.00

tax at 40.8%*$74,800 ($30,518.40)

After tax cash flow      $44,281.60  

If the entire interest income is re-invested after tax cash flow is computed thus:

before tax cash flow   $0

tax at 40.8%*$74,800 ($30,518.40)

After tax cash flow      ($30,518.40)

If the entire interest income represents the original  issue discount,which is the difference between the face value and the issue price,after tax cash  flow is computed thus:

The OID is taxable as if it accrues over the duration of the investment(bonds),hence a portion of the OID would be assessed to tax each year (assume the duration of investment is 5 years)

Annual portion of OID=$74,800/5

before tax cash flow    $14,960 .00

tax at 40.8%*$74,800  ($6103.68 )

After tax cash flow         $8856.32

After tax cash flow      $44,281.60
