Description

Calculates share value using two-stage Free Cash Flow Model.

Usage

shareValTwoStage(FCFE, t, G, r, s)

Arguments

FCFE

A vector.

t

A vector.

G

A vector.

r

A number.

s

A number.

Details

The version of a two-stage model used here assumes constant high growth in first stage and low rate of constant growth in the second stage. According to information provided by Jerald E. Pinto (2020), the method, shareValTwoStage is developed to compute the share value using two stage Free Cash Flow Model for the values passed to its five arguments. Here, FCFE is a vector of given amounts of future Free Cash Flow to the Equity (FCFE) in millions of dollars. The example given here uses values for four years only. However, it is more practical to you have values for say 7 years where first stage of high constant growth continues for let us say four years, followed by second stage of low constant growth of three years. In this case, t is vector of number of years ranging from 1 to any specified number of years used for computing the cumulative value of given Free Cash Flows and G is a vector of Growth rates in two stages. Here, high growth of 20 percent is in stage one that continues for three years and the second stage of low growth at 6 percent and after that r is required rate of return on equity (WACC can be used as r here), and s is number of shares in millions so a value of 0.5 means 500,000 outstanding shares.

Value

Input values to five arguments FCFE, t, G r and s.
