Answer:

$2,152.22

Explanation:

Given that,

FinCorp’s free cash flow (FCFF) = $205 million

Firm’s interest expense, i = $22 million

Tax rate, t = 35%

Growth rate, g = 3%

Cost of equity, e = 12%

Net debt of the firm increases by $3 million

Interest expense (Net of tax) = -i × (1 - t)

                                                = -$22 × (1 - 35%)

                                                = -$22 × 0.65

                                                = -$14.3

FCFE = FCFF + Debt + Interest expense (Net of tax)

         = $205 million + $3 - $14.3

         = $193.7

Therefore,

Market value of equity = FCFE ÷ (e - g)

                                      = $193.7 ÷ (0.12 - 0.03)

                                      = $2,152.22
