Look again at the financial forecasts for Growth-Tech given in Table 4.5. This time assume you know that the opportunity cost of capital is r =.12 (discard the.099 figure calculated in the text). Assume you do not know Growth-Tech’s stock value. Otherwise follow the assumptions given in the text.

a. Calculate the value of Growth-Tech stock.


b. What part of that value reflects the discounted value of P3, the price forecasted for year 3?


c. What part of P3 reflects the present value of growth opportunities (PVGO) after year 3?


d. Suppose that competition will catch up with Growth-Tech by year 4, so that it can earn only its cost of capital on any investments made in year 4 or subsequently. What is Growth-Tech stock worth now under this assumption? (Make additional assumptions if necessary.)
