Inherent Value
If: EY = IY Then: 100 x (E/P) = IY Or: 100 x (E/V) = IY And: V = 100 x (E/IY)
SLIDE 12 Value of MCD
V = 100 x (E /IY) V = 100 x (E /IY) V = 100 x (3.00/5.80) V = 100 x (3.00/5.80) V = $51.72 / Share V = $51.72 / Share Closing Price = $55.48 / Share* Closing Price = $55.48 / Share*

SLIDE 13 Stock Value
V = 100 x (E / IY) x Sqr [(R + G) / (IY + F)] where E = Earnings in $ / share IY = Interest Rate in % R = % Return on Total Capital G = Earnings Growth in % / yr. F = Inflation Rate in % / yr.
SLIDE 14 VV - MCD
V = 100 x (E /IY) x Sqr[(R + G) / (IY + F)] V = 100 x (E /IY) x Sqr[(R + G) / (IY + F)]
V =100 x (3.00/5.80) x Sqr[(6.6 +21.0 ) / (5.80 + 4.00)] V =100 x (3.00/5.80) x Sqr[(6.6 +21.0 ) / (5.80 + 4.00)]
V = $51.72 x Sqr (2.82) V = $51.72 x Sqr (2.82) V = $86.85 $/Share V = $86.85 $/Share
V V Value = $71.74 $/Share, (03/28/08) V V Value = $71.74 $/Share, (03/28/08)
