Principal paid = Annual installment - Interest = 37,258-20,000 = 17,258 <em>(this  is not required but to explain the concept)</em>

You have been assigned the task of using the corporate, or free cash flow, model to estimate Petry Corporation's intrinsic value
Oxana [17]

Answer:

$40 million

Explanation:

The computation of stock price is shown below:-

For computing the stock price first we need to compute the firm value which is below:-

Firm value = Free cash flow-1 ÷ (Weighted average cost of capital - Growth rate)

= $70.0 million ÷ (10% - 5%)

= $70.0 million ÷ 5%

= $1,400 million

Stock price = (Firm value - Debt) ÷ Number of shares

= ($1,400 million - $200 million) ÷ 30 million

= $1,200 million ÷ 30 million

= $40 million
