1 Tax rate = 100 × (Provision) benefit for income taxes ÷ (Net income attributable to Verizon + (Provision) benefit for income taxes)
= 100 × ÷ ( + ) = %
2 Interest expense, after tax = Interest expense × (1 – Tax rate)
= × (1 – %) =
3 EBIT(1 – Tax Rate) = Net income attributable to Verizon + Interest expense, after tax
= + =
4 RR = [EBIT(1 – Tax Rate) – Interest expense (after tax) and dividends] ÷ EBIT(1 – Tax Rate)
= [ – ] ÷ =
5 ROIC = 100 × EBIT(1 – Tax Rate) ÷ Total capital
= 100 × ÷ = %
6 g = RR × ROIC
= × % = %
FCFF growth rate (g) implied by single-stage model
g = 100 × (Total capital, fair value0 × WACC – FCFF0) ÷ (Total capital, fair value0 + FCFF0)
= 100 × ( × % – ) ÷ ( + ) = %
where:
Total capital, fair value0 = current fair value of 's debt and equity (USD $ in millions)
FCFF0 = last year 's free cash flow to the firm (USD $ in millions)
WACC = weighted average cost of 's capital

where:
g1 is implied by PRAT model
g5 is implied by single-stage model
g2, g3 and g4 are calculated using linear interpoltion between g1 and g5
Calculations
g2 = g1 + (g5 – g1) × (2 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= % + (% – %) × (2 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1) = %
g2 = g1 + (g5 – g1) × (3 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= % + (% – %) × (3 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1) = %
g2 = g1 + (g5 – g1) × (4 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1)
= % + (% – %) × (4 – 1) ÷ (5 – 1) = %
