Richter Manufacturing has a 7% unlevered cost of equity. Richter
forecasts the following free cash flows (FCFs), which are expected
to grow at a constant 2% rate after Year 3.
Year 1 | Year 2 | Year 3 | |
FCF | $800 | $825 | $870 |
What is the horizon value of the unlevered operations? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar.

What is the total value of unlevered operations at Year 0? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar.
a). Caculating the Horizon Value at year end 3 of the unlevered operations:-
where, FCF3 = Free Cash flow in year 3 = $870
g = Growth rate of FCF beyond year 3 = 2%
r= Unlevered cost of equity = 7%
Horizon Value at year end 3 = $17,748
b). Calculating the total value of unlevered operations at Year 0 or Enterprise Value today:-
EV = 747.664+ 720.587 + 710.179 + 14,487.655
EV = $16,666.08
So, the total value of unlevered operations at Year 0 is $16,666
