  • Description: In practice, profit tax payments are (1) made more frequently than annually and (2) can be made in advance. To study the influence of these two factors on the financial indicators of a company, we generalized the Brusov–Filatova–Orekhova (BFO) theory for the case of advance profit tax payments with an arbitrary frequency for the first time. Using modified BFO formulae, we showed that all financial indicators of a company, such as company value, the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) and equity cost (ke), depend on the frequency of the profit tax payments. We found that the WACC increased with the payments and the company value decreased with the payments. This meant that more infrequent payments could be beneficial for the company. The tilt angle of the equity cost (ke(L)) also increased with the payments. Depending on the age of the company, the equity cost either decreased with L for all payment frequencies or increased for some frequencies. We compared the obtained results to those that we described recently for profit tax payments at the end of the financial period and found them to be totally different. We found that in spite the fact that the WACC decreased with the payments and the company value increased with the payments, the WACC value in this case turned out to be bigger and the company value turned out to be smaller than in the case of advance profit tax payments of any frequency. This underlined the importance of advance profit tax payments. Regulator recommendations were also developed to encourage the practice of advance profit tax payments due to the understanding of the benefits of this for both parties: the companies and the state. A new effect was discovered: the decrease in equity cost with an increase in the level of leverage (L).
