Answer:
The value of this stock today should be $6.22
Explanation:
The company will start paying dividends 2 years from today that is at t=2. The dividends received 2 years from today can be denoted as D2. The constant growth model of DDM will be used to calculate the price of this stock at t=2 as the growth rate in dividends is constant forever.
The price at t=2 will then be discounted back to its present value today to calculate the price of this stock today.
The price of this stock at t=2 will be,
P2 = D2 * (1+g) / (r - g)
P2 = 0.6 * (1+0.04) / (0.12 - 0.04)
P2 = $7.8
The value of this stock today should be,
P0 = 7.8 / (1+0.12)^2
P0 = $6.218 ROUNDED OFF TO $6.22
Answer:
The inventory would be valued at $75 each
Explanation:
From a market approach to valuation,we need to first of all compare the replacement cost and net realizable in order to pick the lower of both values,hence the replacement cost of $75 is lower than net realizable value of $82.50.
As a result, we can then compare the lower of replacement cost and initial cost,such that inventory can then be valued at the lower of both.
From the foregoing analysis,the replacement of $75 each per item is lower than the initial cost $76.50,invariably our inventory is valued at $75 each.
Answer: 35.29%
Explanation:
Municipal Bonds are attractive in that they give the tax benefit of being tax exempt whereas a corporate bond is liable for taxation. The tax rate that will therefore make an investor indifferent between the two bonds is the one that will equate the Corporate bond's yield net of tax to the yield on the Municipal bond.
5.5% = 8.5% * ( 1 - x)
5.5% = 8.5% - 0.085x
0.085x = 8.5% - 5.5%
0.085x = 3%
x = 35.29%
