What should be the price per share for this company?
| Step-1:Calculation of total value of firm | |||||||||
| As per discounted cash flow method, value of firm is the present value of cash flow. | |||||||||
| (Amount in million) | |||||||||
| Year | Cash flow | Discount factor | Present value of cash flow | ||||||
| a | b | c=1.13^-a | d=b*c | ||||||
| 1 | -9 | 0.884956 | $ -7.96 | ||||||
| 2 | 11 | 0.783147 | $ 8.61 | ||||||
| 3 | 23 | 0.69305 | $ 15.94 | ||||||
| Total | $ 16.59 | ||||||||
| Present value of cash flow after year 3 | = | CF3*(1+g)/(Ke-g)*DF3 | Where, | ||||||
| = | $ 241.38 | CF3 | Cash flow of year 3 | 23 | |||||
| g | Growth in cash flow | 6% | |||||||
| Ke | Discount rate | 13% | |||||||
| DF3 | Discount factor of year 3 | 0.69305 | |||||||
| Value of firm | = | $ 16.59 | + | $ 241.38 | |||||
| = | $ 257.97 | million | |||||||
| Step-2:Value of shares of common stock | |||||||||
| million | |||||||||
| Value of firm | $ 257.97 | ||||||||
