. A stock is expected to pay a dividend of $0.75 at the end of the year. The required rate of return is rs = 10.5%, and the expected constant growth rate is g = 6.4%. What is the stock's current price

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is $18.29

Explanation:

We have many formulas to arriving at the stock price but here we use Gordon growth model.

Formula for getting stock price is:

D1/r - g

Where:

D1 - is the next year dividend or expected dividend to be paid next.

r is the rate of return

g is the growth rate

$0.75/0.105 - 0.064

$0.75/0.041

$18.29.

Therefore, the stock's current price is $18.29

Answers

Answer:

Expected profit = $298.75 million

Explanation:

To calculate the expected return or expected profits, we will simply multiply the probability of each event by the return expected in that event and take a sum the answers. Thus, the expected profit can be calculated as follows,

Expected profit = Probability of recession ending * Profit if recession ends + Probability of recession not ending * profit or loss if recession does not end

Expected profit = 0.75 * 400  +  0.25 * -5

Expected profit = $298.75 million

Suppose you invested in the Ishares High Yield Fund​ (HYG) a month ago. It paid a dividend of today and then you sold it for . What was your dividend yield and capital gains yield on the​ investment?

Answers

Complete Question:

Suppose you invested $100 in the Ishares High Yield Fund HYG your dividend yield and capital gains yield on the investment?

It paid a dividend of $2 today and then you sold it for $95. What was Dividend Yield and Capital Gains Yield on the investment?

Answer:

Dividend Yield is 2%

Capital Gains Yield is -5%

Explanation:

Dividend Yield:

We can calculate the Dividend Yield using the following formula:

Dividend Yield = D0 / Initial Stock Price

Here

D1 was Dividend paid just now and is $2 per share

Initial Stock Price before the dividend payment was $100 per share

By putting values, we have:

Dividend Yield = $2 per share / $100 per share = 2%

Capital Gains Yield:

We can find capital gains yield by using following formula:

Capital Gains Yield = (P1 - P0) / P0

Here

P1 is $95

P0 is $100

By putting values we have:

Capital Gains Yield = ($95 - $100) / $100 = -5%

Answer:

In 2012, she earned $27.00 per hour, the price of a paperback novel was $9.00, and the price of a mandarin was $3.00. Which of the following give the nominal value of a variable? Check all that apply.

The price of a mandarin is $3.00 in 2012.

Nominal values are expressed in terms of current money. real variables are represented in terms of other goods or services.

Which of the following give the real value of a variable? Check all that apply.

The price of a paperback novel is 3 mandarins in 2012.

Nominal values are expressed in terms of current money. real variables are represented in terms of other goods or services.

Suppose that the Fed sharply increases the money supply between 2012 and 2017. In 2017, Eleanor's wage has risen to $54.00 per hour. The price of a paperback novel is $18.00 and the price of a mandarin is $6.00. In 2017, the relative price of a paperback novel is still 3 mandarins.  

Between 2012 and 2017, the nominal value of Eleanor's wage doubled, and the real value of her wage remained constant.

Monetary neutrality is the proposition that a change in the money supply affects nominal variables and does not affect real variables.

Answers

Answer:

$10,000

Explanation:

A customer buys 1,000 shares of XYZ

The shares are bought at $60 in a margin account

Two days after the price of XYZ drops to $40

The first step is to calculate the current market value

= 1,000 shares×$40

= $40,000

Therefore, the minimum maintenance margin requirement can be calculated as follows

= 25/100 × current market value

= 25/100 × 40,000

= 0.25×40,000

= $10,000

Hence the minimum maintenance margin requirement is $10,000

There is something that we must remember about zero coupon bonds, and that is that they are sold in thousands. This equation is complex, but there is an easier way to solve it. We can plug in the options to determine which % will result in a possible answer.

The answer is 11.1%, since the other options resulted in numbers which are not even close to a thousand.

$100,000 = $45,000(1.111)³ + x(1.111)⁵

$100,000 = $61,709.88 + 1.2763x

The production budget shows expected unit sales of 40000. Beginning finished goods units are 3800. Required production units are 41600. What are the desired ending finished goods units

Answers

Answer:

desired ending inventory= 5,400 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales= 40,000 units

Beginning finished goods= 3,800 units

Production= 41,600 units

To calculate the desired ending inventory, we need to use the following formula:

Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

41,600= 40,000 + desired ending inventory - 3,800

41,600 + 3,800 - 40,000= desired ending inventory

desired ending inventory= 5,400 units

If income rises from $1,000 to $1,400 and consumption rises from $800 to $1,168, the marginal propensity to consume is __________ percent.

Answers

Answer:

The marginal propensity to consume is 92 percent.

Explanation:

Marginal propensity to consume (MPC) refers to the additional expenditure on consumption by consumer as a result of an in national income.

That is, MPC is a measure of the proportion or percentage of the additional income that goes consumption expenditure.

MPC can be calculated using the following formula

MPC = ΔC / ΔY ......................................... (1)

Where;

ΔC = Change in consumption = New consumption - Old consumption = $1,168 - $800 = $368

ΔY = Change in income = New income - Old income = $1,400 - $1,000 = $400

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

MPC = $368 / $400 = 0.92, or 92%

Therefore, the marginal propensity to consume is 92 percent.

A proposed new project has projected sales of $222000, costs of $96500, and deperciation of $26100. The tax rate is 24 percent.Calculate operating cash flow using the four different approaches.

(Do not round intermediate calculations.)

A. EBIT+Depreciation-Taxes

B. Top-Down

C. Tax-Shield

D.Bottom-Up

Answer:

(A) $101,644

(B) $101,644

(C) $101,644

(D) $101,644

Explanation:

A proposed new project has a sales of $222,000

The cost is $96,500

The depreciation is $26,100

The tax rate is 24%

= 24/100

= 0.24

(A) Using the EBIT + Depreciation - Taxes approach, the operating cash flow can be calculated as follows

EBIT= Sales-Cost-Depreciation

= $222,000-$96,500-$26,100

= $99,400

Taxes= EBIT × tax rate

= $99,400 × 0.24

= $23,856

EBIT + Depreciation - Taxes

$99,400+$26,100-$23,856

= $125,500-$23,856

= $101,644

(B) Using the Top down approach, the operating Cash flow can be calculated as follows

Top down= Sales-Cost-Taxes

= $222,000-$96,500-$23,856

= $101,644

(C) Using the tax shield approach, the operating cash flow can be calculated as follows

Tax shield= (sales-cost)×(1-Tax rate)+(depreciation×tax rate)

= ($222,000-$96,500) × (1-0.24) + ($26,100×0.24)

= 125,500×0.76+6,264

= $101,644

(D) Using the bottom up approach, the operating cash flow can be calculated as follows

Bottom up = NI + depreciation

NI=EBIT-Taxes

= $99,400-$23,856

= $75,544

Bottom up=$75,544 + $26,100

= $101,644

Gretta's portfolio consists of $700,000 invested in a stock that has a beta of 1.2 and $300,000 invested in a stock that has a beta of 0.8. The risk-free rate is 6% and the market risk premium is 5%. Which of the following statements is CORRECT?

a. The required return on the market is 10%.
b. The portfolio's required return is less than 11%.
c. If the risk-free rate remains unchanged but the market risk premium increases by 2%, Gretta's portfolio's required return will increase by more than 2%.
d. If the market risk premium remains unchanged but expected inflation increases by 2%, Gretta's portfolio's required return will increase by more than 2%.
e. If the stock market is efficient, Gretta's portfolio's expected return should equal.

Answers

Answer: c. If the risk-free rate remains unchanged but the market risk premium increases by 2%, Gretta's portfolio's required return will increase by more than 2%.

Explanation:

To prove the above option, the Capital Asset Pricing Model can be used.

Required Return = Risk free rate + portfolio beta(market premium)

Portfolio Beta

This the weighted average of the individual betas.

Total portfolio value = 700,000 + 300,000 = $1,000,000

= ( 1.2 * 700,000/1,000,000) + ( 0.8 * 300,000/1,000,000)

= 0.84 + 0.24

= 1.08

Required return = 6% + 1.08 ( 5%)

= 6% + 5.4%

= 11.4%

Assuming risk-free rate remains unchanged but the market risk premium increases by 2%.

Required return = 6% + 1.08 ( 5% + 2%)

= 6% + 7.56%

= 13.56%

The change in required return

= (13.56% - 11.4%)/11.4%

= 18.9%

Proving that if the risk-free rate remains unchanged but the market risk premium increases by 2%, Gretta's portfolio's required return will increase by more than 2%.

Average Rate of Return
Determine the average rate of return for a project that is estimated to yield total income of $148,500 over five years, has a cost of $300,000, and has a $30,000 residual value.
%

Answers

Answer:

22%

Explanation:

The formula to compute the accounting rate of return is shown below:

= Average net income ÷ average investment

where,  

Average net income is

= Total income ÷ number of years

= $148,500 ÷ 5 years

= $29,700

And, the average investment would be

= (Cost - salvage value) ÷ 2

= ($300,000 - $30,000) ÷ 2

= $270,000 ÷ 2

= $135,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the rate would equal to

= $29,700 ÷ $135,000

= 22%

Gabriel Industries stock has a beta of 1.12. The company just paid a dividend of $1.15, and the dividends are expected to grow at 4 percent. The expected return on the market is 11.4 percent, and Treasury bills are yielding 3.8 percent. The most recent stock price is $85. (a) Calculate the cost of equity using the dividend growth model method. (b) Calculate the cost of equity using the SML method. (c) Why do you think your estimates in (a) and (b) are so different?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation of cost of equity using the dividend growth model method is shown below:-

Expected Dividend = Current dividend × (1 + Growth rate)

= $1.15 × (1.04)

= $1.196

Current Stock Price = $85

Cost of Equity =  (Expected dividend ÷ Current stock price) + growth rate

= (1.196 ÷ 85) + 0.04

= 0.05407

or

= 5.41 %

b. The computation of cost of equity using the SML method is shown below:-

Using CAPM, Cost of Equity = Risk free rate + Stock beta × (Market return - Risk free rate)

= 3.8 + 1.12 × (11.4 - 3.8)

= 12.31%

c. Since there are two different methods like SML and dividend growth model for determining the cost of equity so the estimates are so different
