Can you help me understand questions $1$ and $2$ at the bottom? Question $1$ "what is the value per share of the company's stock?" Question $2$ "what is your estimate of the stock prcie?"QUESTIONS

Assuming the company continues its current

growth rate, what is the value per share of the

company's stock?

To verify their calculations, Carrington and Gene$-$

vieve have hired Josh Schlessman as a consultant.

Josh was previously an equity analyst and cov$-$

ered the HVAC industry. Josh has examined the

company's financlal statements, as well as those

of its competitors. Although Ragan, Inc., cur$-$

rently has a technological advantage, his re$-$

search indicates that other companies are

investigating methods to improve efficiency.

Given this, Josh believes that the company's

technological advantage will last only for the

next five years, After that period, the company's

growth will likely slow to the industry growth av$-$

erage. Additionally, Josh belleves that the re$-$

quired return used by the company is too high.

He believes the industry average required re$-$

turn is more appropriate. Under this growth rate

assumption, what is your estimate of the stock

price?
