b. FCFE

c. Price/Earnings

d. Price/Book

Out of the 4 methods which one would you select, and briefly explain of support for your selection, which could include why the other methods are inappropriate.

FCFE-

without dividends and /or earnings, DDM and P/E are useless.

P/B may be acceptable, but always remember
