Explanation / Answer

As per rules, I will answer the first 4 sub parts

1 b- 10.7%

Risk adjusted discount rate will be (16%-2%)*(1-23%)

2 c 7960

Real price = 3000*105%^20

3. d 11828

Nominal price = real price*(1+ inflation)^t

= 7960*1.02^20

4. None of the answers are correct

The after tax terminal value = 7960*(1-23%) = $6129
