From Exhibit 4a and 4b, make a projection of FCFs for the Ecoliving division, assuming that the 
difference between 4a and 4b is wholly due to that division. Determine which growth rate (for 
the final FCF, into perpetuity) would make the CF overview for EcoLiving consistent with what 
external parties are offering. Also give at least 2 other arguments why 
such a difference would exist in reality.
