Explanation / Answer

1. FCF of next year (F1)= $2685 million Growth Rate (g) = 4.98% WACC (Kc) = 14.94% Value of Firm = F1 / Kc - g) = 2685 / ( 0.1494 - 0.0498) = 2685 / 0.0996 = $26,957.83 million Hence, the correct answer is Option B - $26,957.83 million 2. Value of Firm = Value of Debt + Value of Preferred Stock + Value of Common Stock or, 26957.83 = 12131 + 6739 + Value of Common Stock / Equity or, Value of Equity = 26957.83 - 12131 -6739 = $8087.73 Hence, the correct answer is Option B - $8,087.83 million 3. Intrinsic Value per share = Value of Equity / Number of shares outstanding = 8087.83m / 525m = $15.41 Hence, the correct answer is Option C - $15.41 per share
