Casey Hyunh is trying to value the stock of Resources Limited. To easily see how a change in one or more of her assumptions affects the estimated value of the stock, she is using a spreadsheet model. The model has projections for the next four years based on the following assumptions.
Sales will be $ 300 million in year 1.
Sales will grow at 15 percent in years 2 and 3 and at 10 percent in year 4.
Operating profits (EBIT) will be 17 percent of sales in each year.
Interest expense will be $ 10 million per year.
Income tax rate is 30 percent.
Earnings retention ratio would stay at 0.60.
The per - share dividend growth rate will be constant from year 4 forward and this final growth rate will be 200 basis points less than the growth rate from year 3 to year 4.
The company has 10 million shares outstanding. Hyunh has estimated the required return on Resources’stock to be 13 percent.

A. Estimate the value of the stock at the end of year 4 based on the preceding assumptions.
B. Estimate the current value of the stock using the same assumptions.
C. Hyunh is wondering how a change in the projected sales growth rate would affect the estimated value. Estimate the current value of the stock if the sales growth rate in year 3 is 10 percent instead of 15 percent.
