Answer:
a. ROE (r) = 13% = 0.13
EPS = $3.60
Expected dividend (D1) = 50% x $3.60 = $1.80
Plowback ratio (b) = 50% = 0.50
Cost of equity (ke) = 12% = 0.12
Growth rate = r x b
Growth rate = 0.13 x 0.50 = 0.065
Po= D1/Ke-g
Po = $1.80/0.12-0.065
Po = $1.80/0.055
Po = $32.73
P/E ratio = <u>Current market price per share</u>
Earnings per share
P/E ratio = <u>$32.73</u>
$3.60
P/E ratio = 9.09
b. ER(S) = Rf + β(Rm - Rf)
ER(S) = 5 + 1.2(13 - 5)
ER(S) = 5 + 9.6
ER(S) = 14.6%
Explanation:
In the first part of the question, there is need to calculate the expected dividend, which is dividend pay-our ratio of 50% multiplied by earnings per share. We also need to calculate the growth rate, which is plowback ratio multiplied by ROE. Then, we will calculate the current market price, which equals expected dividend divided by the difference between return on stock (Ke) and growth rate. Finally, the price-earnings ratio is calculated as current market price per share divided by earnings per share.
In the second part of the question, Cost of equity (return on stock) is a function of risk-free rate plus beta multiplied by market risk-premium. Market risk premium is market return minus risk-free rate.

Answer:
a.Company A has a lower return on assets (ROA).
c.Company A has a lower times interest earned (TIE) ratio.
That is options a and c
Explanation:
For company A to have high debt ratio means it has a higher debt which will reduce earnings. Company A's earnings will be less than Company B's.
ROA= Net income/Total assets
Since Company A's income is less than Company B's ROA for Company A will be less than that for Company B.
TIE = Earnings before Interest and Tax/Interest
Due to higher debt of company A it's interest will be higher resulting in low TIE.
