Jiminy’s Cricket Farm issued a 20-year, 7 percent semiannual coupon bond 4 years ago. The bond currently sells for 104 percent o
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

6.64%

Explanation:

The pretax cost of debt is the Yield to Maturity (YTM). Since the coupons are paid semiannually, adjust the duration and the coupon payment amount to semi-annual terms.

You can solve for the YTM using a financial calculator with the following inputs;

Maturity of the bond; N = 20*2 = 40

Face value ; FV = 1000

Semi-annual coupon payment ; PMT = (7%/2)*1000 = 35

Current price of the bond; PV = -1.04*1000 = -1040

Then compute the semiannual interest rate ; CPT I/Y =  3.318%

Therefore, pretax cost of debt; YTM = 3.318 *2 = 6.64%

Korolek [52]

Answer:

option 14.92%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question;

Expected annual dividend to be paid = $0.65

Expected growth rate = 9.50%

Walter’s stock currently trades = $12.00 per share

Now,

Expected rate of return = \frac{\textup{Expected dividend}}{\textup{Stock price}}\times100\% + Growth rate

or

Expected rate of return = \frac{\$0.65}{\$12.00}\times100\% + 9.50%

or

Expected rate of return = ( 0.054167 × 100% ) + 9.50%

or

Expected rate of return = 5.4167% + 9.50%

or

Expected rate of return = 14.9167 ≈ 14.92%

Hence, the correct answer is option 14.92%
