    The correct answer is $2,444.6 billion

    Explanation:

    FCFE = FCF + Increase in debt - Interest (1-t)

    = $205+$25-$22 (1-0.35)

    =$215.7

    Market Value = [ (215.7) 1.02) ] / [11%-2%]

    =$2,444.6

    Assuming a single period growth rate of 2%,

    the forecasted FCFE = $215.7 (1+0.02)

    =$220.01 billion

    Although this is not available in the options provided,$220.01 billion is the correct answer.
