Calculate the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) for PDI.

E/V80.00%

Cost of equity9.40%

Risk-free rate 3.00%

Beta 1.28

Market equity risk premium 5.00%

D/V20.00%

Cost of debt4.00%

Corporate tax rate40.00%

WACC 80% x 9.40%) + [20% x 4% x (1 - 40%)]= 8.00% WACC = (E/V x Re) + ((D/V x Rd) x (1 - T))

*Cost of equityRisk free rate of return + (Beta * Risk premium) = 3% + (1.28 x 5%) 0.094

Givend the above, I cannot get the following:

Sum of FCF PV =?

Terminal value =?

Present value of terminal value =?

Total value of PDI =?
