Closing the entire application with close button

Question

For my app if I use finish() then it will close activity A. For the activity stack like A->B->C(currently visible) if I use finish() in C it will close C, not A or B and B resumes.

In such cases if I need to close all the activities at a glance by clicking a Close button in activity C then what is the solution ? Does Android provide any technique to achieve this ?

NOTE: I found a solution Here which is partially helpful, not enough to solve my problem. Though you may get some idea(s) from here.

Ok, on close button click send a broadcast to your home activity then then call this :

// Inside broadcast recevier do this, it wont allow then write below code in a separate function and call this. 
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), Home.class);
intent.addFlags(FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
System.exit(0);

It will work surely, i have already done before and it is working for me.
