Encore International is a company that has spectacular growth. However the analysts speculated that Encore might encounter little or no growth in the future and no growth in future dividends.

This expected to cause the risk from 8.8% to 10%. The risk free rate is 6%. Encore’s CFO assigned junior financial analyst, Marc Scott, to evaluate the firm’s current stock by considering the conservative’s and Jordan Ellis’s predictions.
