Explanation / Answer

Given Data:

cash flow is expected to grow = 10%

From year 1 to year 5 and 6% per year after year 5 to infinity

Free cash flow in 1 year:

=(850-100-280-75)*(1-0.40)+75-3-80

=229

Enterprise value:

220-1.12+229*1.1/1.12^2+229*1.1^2/1.12^3+229*1.1^3/1.12^*4+229*1.1^4/1.12^5+229*1.1^4*1.06/(1.12^5*(0.12-0.06))

= 4347.4732

Common stock value =4347.4732+50-700-70+80

=3707.4732/100

share price =37.07

Therefore Option A is correct.
