million. After building an earnings model for company x, you have
projected free cash flow for each year through 2020 as follows:
Year 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020
Free cash flow 110 120 150 170 200 250 280
You estimate that the weighted average cost of capital (wacc) for
company x is 10% and assume that free cash flows grow in perpetuity at
3.0% annually beyond 2020, the final projected year. Estimate the
present value of the projected free cash flows through 2020, discounted
