I'm going to go with B. Trying to exclude taxation costs would be like trying to file your taxes without including your income - it just doesn't add up!

Haha, this question is a real tax-ifying conundrum! I'm going with B, because the Financial Appraisal needs to have a complete financial picture, even if it's not all sunshine and rainbows.

I agree with Miss. Excluding unclaimable taxation costs would provide a more accurate representation of the project's financial viability.

Hmm, I'm not sure. I was thinking C might be right, since taxation costs are typically excluded from the Financial Appraisal. But I guess B makes sense too.

I think the correct answer is B. The Financial Appraisal should factor in all costs and benefits, including taxation costs, to get an accurate picture of value for money.
