Answer:
The price of the stock today is $15.63
Explanation:
The three stage Dividend Discount model will be used to calculate the price of this stock as the dividends are growing at three different growth rates. These dividends will be discounted back to calculate the price of the stock today.
The price per share today under this model will be:
P0 = D1 / (1+r) + D2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + Dn / (1+r)^n + [Dn * (1+gC) / (r - gC)] / (1+r)^n
Where,
- D1 is the dividend expected for the next period of Year 1.
- gC is the constant growth rate or third stage growth rate that will last forever.
P0 = 1.25 / (1+0.2) + 1.25 * (1+0.4) / (1+0.2)^2 + 1.25 * (1+0.4) * (1+0.2) / (1+0.2)^3 + 1.25 * (1+0.4) * (1+0.2)^2 / (1+0.2)^4 +
[1.25 * (1+0.4) * (1+0.2)^2 * (1+0.08) / (0.2 - 0.08)] / (1+0.2)^4
The P0 = $15.625 rounded off to $15.63

Answer:
$8,770.00
Explanation:
In this question we use the present value formula i.e shown in the attachment below:
Data provided in the question
Future value = $0
Rate of interest = 0.48%
NPER = 4 years × 12 months = 48 months
PMT = $205
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)
So, after solving this, the answer would be $8,770.00
Answer:
6.11%
Explanation:
For computing the variance, first we have to determine the expected return which is shown below:
= (Expected return of the boom × weightage of boom) + (expected return of the normal economy × weightage of normal economy) + (expected return of the recession × weightage of recession)
= (12% × 5%) + (10% × 85%) + (2% × 10%)
= 0.6% + 8.5% + 0.2%
= 9.30%
Now the variance would equal to the
= Weightage × (Return - Expected Return) ^2
For boom:
= 5% × (12% - 9.3%) ^2
= 0.3645
For normal economy:
= 85% × (10% - 9.3%) ^2
= 0.4165
For recession:
= 10% × (2% - 9.3%) ^2
= 5.329
So, the total variance would be
= 0.3645 + 0.4165 + 5.329
= 6.11%
