Explanation / Answer

Solution-

Calculation of forecasted EPS, CFPS &SPS for 2016

Forecasted value = value for 2015(1+forecasted growth rate)

EPS = $5*(1+0.1348)= $5.674

CFPS= $6.60(1+0.1141)=$7.35

SPS= $ 25.65(1+0.0734)= $27.53

Calculation of share price

share price= Forecasted value * Average price multiple

Share price using P/E= 5.67*13.10= $74.28

Share price using P/CF= 7.35 *9.42= $69.24

Share price using P/S= 27.53 * 2.36= $64.97
