We have been provided that growth is expected to be constant after 2015, and the weighted average cost of capital is 12%
growth is for the year 2015 is 7% as we calculate in the above table
,WACC is 12%,if growth is expected to be constant after 2015, then value at 2016 is as follow
=766.13/ 12-7
=766.13/5%
=$ 15,322.60
