After the third year, however, the FCF is expected to grow at a constant rate of 3.18% per year, which will last forever (FCF4).

Explanation / Answer

Answer )

The concept of valuation is based on contant growth model,

V = FCF4 / (k-g)----------(1)

, where K = cost of capital ,= 9.54% and g = growth rate = 3.18%

FCF4 = FCF3(1+g)

FCF1 = $2925.00 , FCF2 =FCF1 (1+ 22.60%) = $2925.00 *(1+ 22.60%)

FCF3 = FCF2 (1+ 22.60%) = $2925.00 *(1+ 22.60%) ^2 = $4396. 497

FCF4 = $4396. 497(1+ 3.18%) =$ 4536.306

Using eq(1)   V = 4536.306 / ( 0.0954 - 0.0318)

V = $75923.72 million option A ( nearest value of calculation)

Answer B)

Value for firm(V) = Value of equity(E) - value of debt (D)

E = V-D = $75923.72 - $ 47452

=> E = $28471.72 millions

Value of one share = E/ noof shares = $28471.72/ 750 = 37. 9623 $

Option 2 $ 23.20
