1. Declining FCF Growth Valuation
Question 1: Brushy Mountain Mining Company's coal reserves are being depleted, so its sales are falling. Also, environmental costs increase each year, so its costs are rising. As a result, the company's free cash flows are declining at the constant rate of 6% per year. If its current free cash flow (FCF0) is $4 million and its weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is 11%, what is the estimated value of Brushy Mountain's value of operations? Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in millions. For example, an answer of $1 million should be entered as 1, not 1,000,000. Round your answer to two decimal places.
2. Nonconstant Dividend Growth Valuation
Conroy Consulting Corporation (CCC) has a current dividend of D0 = $1.00. Shareholders require a 14% rate of return. Although the dividend has been growing at a rate of 25% per year in recent years, this growth rate is expected to last only for another 2 years (g0,1 = g1,2 = 25%). After Year 2, the growth rate will stabilize at gL = 8%.
Question A. What is CCC's stock worth today? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent.
Question B. What is the expected stock price at Year 1? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent.
Question C. What is the Year 1 expected (1) dividend yield, (2) capital gains yield, and (3) total return? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places.

Capital gains yield: %T

Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the answers to two decimal places.
