Q1

In the initial years, neither the debt to equity ratio nor the debt is constant and WACC cannot be used. Hence it is advisable to use the APV met However, after 2012 the D/E ratio becomes constant and hence WACC method can be used to calculate the termainal value of the firm in 2012. The free cash flows and terminal value can then be discounted at the unlevered cost of equity 8.30% to obtain the base case value of the firm. Present values of interest tax shields which are discounted at cost of debt are then added to the base value along with the value of Inoperative a

Q2

The unlevered cost of equity of 8.30% should be used to discount the unlevered FCF as neither the nor the D/E ratio are constant in the initial y However in the long run, the D/E ratio will become constant and hence WACC method taking into account the growth rate is used to calculate t
