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: $688.17
Explanation:
He has to pay $60 every month on the first day or a lump sum.
The lump sum will be the present value of monthly payments.
This is a stable Cashflow and so is an Annuity and because it is done on the first day of the month it is an Annuity due.
Calculating present value of annuity due is;
= Annuity + Annuity (( 1 - ( 1 + r) ^ -(n - 1)) / r)
= 60 + 60 (( 1 - ( 1 + 0.833%)-¹¹) / 0.833%) )
=60 + 60* 10.4695
= $688.17
Note: interest rate must be divided into 12 to make it monthly rate.
=10%/12
= 0.833%
Answer:
