Simpkins Corporation does not pay any dividends because it is expanding rapidly and needs to retain all of its earnings. However

, investors expect Simpkins to begin paying dividends, with the first dividend of $0.75 coming 3 years from today. The dividend should grow rapidly - at a rate of 65% per year - during Years 4 and 5. After Year 5, the company should grow at a constant rate of 7% per year. If the required return on the stock is 14%, what is the value of the stock today (assume the market is in equilibrium with the required return equal to the expected return)? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent.

Answer:

Value of the stock today=18.51

Explanation:

Price of the stock today = \frac{D3}{(1+ke)^3}+\frac{D4}{(1+ke)^4}+\frac{D5}{(1+ke)^5}+\frac{D6}{(1+ke)^6}+\frac{P6}{(1+ke)^6}.

where and P6= \frac{D7}{ke-g}

Estimate of the stock's current price = \frac{0.75}{(1+0.14)^3}+\frac{0.75(1.65)}{(1+0.14)^4}+\frac{0.75(1.65)^2}{(1+0.14)^5}+\frac{0.75(1.65)^2(1.07)}{(1+0.14)^6}+\frac{0.75(1.65)^2(1.07)^2}{(0.14-0.07)(1.14)^6} =  18.51

Answer:

The answer is $18.52

Explanation:

The dividend growth model is used to determine if a company's stock is undervalued or overvalued given the expected growth rate of the  company. This valuation model calculates the value of the stock assuming the dividend growth is stable in perpetuity or at different rate during a specified period. The multi stage dividend growth model is useful in this case because the dividend growth rate is not uniform across all periods. The computation is done sequentially and in stages.

The first stage entails computing the expected dividend values, where the the growth rate is 65% in year 4 and 5 then 7% thereafter.

The second stage involves computing the present values of the values in the first stage using the required rate of return given as 14%

In the third stage, the dividend in perpetuity is computed so as to calculate the anticipated price of the stock in future, given the stable dividend growth. Lastly, the present value of the stock is computed by adding up all the present values of the projected dividend values calculated.

Please see the attached document for these calculations in a tabular format.

Present value of stock = 0.506 + 0.733+1.0605+16.212 = 18.516

quester [9]

Answer:

Cost of goods sold on April 25 is $13.80 and the inventory balance is $55.20

Explanation:

Data given:total unit

Cost of purchase with  data;

Date                  Amount

April 5                 $10

April 10                $12

April 15                $14

April 20                 $16

April 22                 $17

Total cost             69    

Average cost = total cost /total quantity

                       = 69/5

                       =13.8

The cost of the ending inventory is given on the balance sheet below

Date      Purchases              Cost of            Inventory Bal.   Avg Cost

                                            goods sold

April 5   $10* 1 unit= $10                -                        $10               10/1 = $10

April  10  $12* 1 unit=$12               -               10+ 12 = 22            22/2 = 11

April  15   $14* 1 unit=$14                  -           22+14 =36              36/3 = 12

April 20   $16* 1 unit= $16                  -          36 +16 =52            52/4 = 13

April 22    $17* 1 unit = $17                 -          52+17 =69            69/5 = 13.8

April 25             -           1 unit*13.8 = 13.80      69 - 13.8 = 55.20
