How does Frost Shot and Ranger's Focus work?

Part 1: Frost Shot:

I assume Frost Shot work as such:

For example, ashe currently has 150 AD, and 50% critical strike chance. If she doesn't own Infinity edge, her effective AD against enemies affected by Frost Shot will be

150 + 150 x (0.1 + 0.5) = 150 + 90 = 240 effective AD against enemies affected by Frost Shot

if she has Infinity Edge, then the equation would be

150 + 150 x (0.1 + 0.5 x 1.5) = 150 + 150 x (0.1 + 0.75) = 150 + 112.5 = 262.5 effective AD

Am I correct so far?

Part 2: Ranger's Focus:

Ashe has the same 150 AD and the same 50% critical strike chance as above. Let's assume her Ranger's Focus is leveled to the max, 5. Each basic attack will become 5 arrows, each of them carrying an effective AD as show bellow:

150 x 0.25 = 37.5 (basic damage for each arrow, bellow, we apply Frost Shot)

no Infinity Edge:

37.5 + 37.5 x ( 0.1 + 0.5) = 37.5 + 22.5 = 60 effective AD for each arrow in the 5 arrows flurry, which would total 300 of incoming physical damage (unless Ashe has The Black Cleaver, then we can't simplify the calculation to 300 points of incoming damage, but we will disconsider this situation)

with Infinity Edge:

37.5 + 37.5 x ( 0.1 + 0.5 x 1.5) = 37.5 + 37.5 x ( 0.1 + 0.75) = 37.5 + 31.875 = 69.375 effective AD for each arrow in the 5 arrows flurry, totalling 346.875 of incoming physical damage.

Since Ranger's Focus lasts for 4 seconds, if Ashe has 2.5 Attack Speed with Ranger's Focus activated (remember, it gives a 40% Attack Speed bonus, so she would need less than actually 2.5 with Ranger's Focus innactive), she can shoot up to 10 flurries (50 arrows!)

Part 3: Two questions:

1. Am I correct in my analysis of those skills and how they interact?

2. What is the ideal damage output build for Ashe, considering Infinity Edge, Attack Damage, Attack Speed and Critical Strike are the only factors that influence her damage output?
