Questions About the APV Model

Hey guys,

I was looking at the APV model on Macabus, and I was wondering how the equation for Terminal Value of Income Tax Shield came about.

It says it's TV ITS = t × DebtN × Re × (1 + g) / (Re − g)2 

and I am curious on why there is a "^2" because the formula looks similar to the growing perpetuity formula. 

It would be great if I could see the derivation of that formula because I am dying to know this. 

Thanks!
