• You decide to use a three stage DCF model and a high growth period of 5 years for Company XYZ.
• The growth rate will remain its value during the Y1 of the high growth period and gradually transit to the growth rate in the stable growth period during the following years in the high growth period.
• In the stable growth period, you estimated the ROC to be 2% higher than the wacc in the stable growth period.
• The growth rate in the stable period is set to be 1% higher than the current long term risk free rate, and you need to compute the wacc in the stable growth period.
• You consider 3 aspects when calculating the wacc:
  1. Make the beta set to 1
  2. Take the avg of the debt to equity ratio of your firm and the industry average debt to equity ratio which is 0.36 for the game industry here, use the avg of these two ratios as your debt ratios in the stable growth period
  3. Consider the emerging market country risk premium shrink to half of its current size in the stable growth period
