will be performing equity research. You are told to make a recommendation for a company of your

choice to be presented to the partners for evaluation. Tool Mania catches your attention as a possible buy.

next 5 years in par with revenue growth. After that you project the company will grow at the equivalent of

GDP at 3% forever. The company uses a fixed required rate of return at 15%. At which stock price will

you issue a buy recommendation for this company?
