You are performing a valuation of a retail firm based on free cash flow to the firm (FCFF). You want to buy the firm, own it for 8 years and then sell it. FCFF in the most recent 12 months (year 0) was K3.65 million. You expect cash flows to grow at an annual rate of 4% for the next five years and then settle at the year 5 level per year for the remaining 3 years. The firm's cost of equity is 10% and its weighted average cost of capital is 8%. What price should you pay for this firm based on the discounted value of FCFF? Explain your answer.
