Finance 2 (2023) – Problem Set 1University of Amsterdam
Answers to IN CLASS exercises do not need to be handed in
The parts of exercises marked [IN CLASS] (e.g. 2h-2j.) will be completed during the tutorial
and answers to these parts do not need to be handed in via Canvas. Answers to the other
questions need to be completed before the deadline (see Canvas) and students need them to
participate in the tutorial.
Grading: only first problem set and bonus
We will only grade the first homework set in Canvas and then at the end of the course
determine if you have received the bonus or not. You will therefore not see a grade for each
homework set you have handed in. Feedback is possible during the tutorials.
Question 1 | Chapter 9 - Valuing equity based on DCF
Your corporation has $150 million of interest-bearing debt, $40 million of excess cash and 9 million
shares of stock outstanding. You expect your corporation to generate the following free cash flows
over the next five years:
Year 1 2 3 4 5
FCF ($ millions) 15 20 18 20 25
After year five, you estimate that the free cash flows will grow at 3% per year until infinity. The
weighted average cost of capital is 10%.
a. What is the enterprise value of your corporation? Hint: take into account the continuation
value that represents cash flows after year 5.
b. Show that the value of a share of your corporation is $21.25.

, Problem set 1
Question 1
Your corporation has $150 million of interest-bearing debt, $40 million of excess cash
and 9 million shares of stock outstanding. You expect your corporation to generate the
following free cash flows over the next five years:
Year 1 2 3 4 5
FCF ($ millions) 15 20 18 20 25
A er year five, you estimate that the free cash flows will grow at 3% per year until
infinity. The weighted average cost of capital is 10%.
a.
Enterprise value: V₀ = (.1) + (.1 ²) + (.1 ³) + (.1 ⁴) + (.1 ⁵) +
((25 * 1.03 / (0.1 - 0.03) / 1.1 ⁵) = $301.28 million
b.
Share price: P₀ = (V₀ + cash - debt) / shares outstanding = (301.28 + 40 - 150) / 9 =
$21.25
