Respuesta :

Answer:

option (A) $1,384.24

Explanation:

Given:

Free Cash Flow in Year 3 = $88 million

Expected growth rate = 10% = 0.1

Constant Growth Rate, gC = 4%

Gonzales Corporationʹsexpected terminal enterprise value in Year 2

= [tex]\frac{\textup{FCF3}}{\textup{(WACC - gC)}}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{FCF0\times(1+gH)^2\times(1+gC)}{\textup{(WACC - gC)}}[/tex]

Here,

FCF3 is the Free Cash Flow in Year 3

FCF3 is Free Cash Flow Now

= [tex]\frac{\textup{88\times(1 + 0.10)^2\times(1 + 0.04)}}{\textup{(0.12 - 0.04)}}[/tex]

= $1,384.24

Hence,

The correct answer is option (A) $1,384.24
