Answer:
The answer is option e. $44.46
Explanation:
The stock's expected price after 5 years can be expressed as;
FV=CV(1+RRR)^n
where;
FV=future value of stock/expected price after 5 years
CV=current price of stock
DGR=dividend growth rate
n=number of years
In our case;
FV=unknown
CV=$35.25 per share
DGW=4.75%=4.75/100=0.0475
n=5 years
replacing;
FV=35.25(1+0.0475)^5
FV=35.25(1.0475)^5
FV=44.46
Answer: 7.35%
Explanation:
Based on the information given, the market rate of return on this stock will be calculated as:
= (D1/P0) +G
where,
D1= Dividend at year 1 = 2.20
P = price at present =43.19
G = dividend growth rate =2.25%
We then slot the figures into the formula and we will get:
= (D1/P0) +G
= (2.20 / 43.19) + 2.25%
= 0.051 + 2.25%
= 5.1% + 2.25%
= 7.35%
Therefore, the market rate of return will be 7.35%.
Answer:
$89.41
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Dividend declared = $6.30 per share
Tax rate = 20%
Selling price of the stock = $94.45
Now,
Aftertax dividend = Dividend × ( 1 - Tax rate )
= $6.30 × ( 1 - 0.20 )
= $5.04
Thus,
Ex-dividend price = Selling price - Aftertax dividend
or
Ex-dividend price = $94.45 - $5.04
or
Ex-dividend price = $89.41
