Answer:

Insurance is the procedure by which persons or companies exposed to a specific risk agree with an institution specializing in compensation for damage that the institution will indemnify the damage caused when the risk materializes. The resulting contract is called insurance.

From a commercial point of view, insurance can be defined as the means by which the cost of incidental damage can be converted evenly into a continuous annual cost on an annual basis.

fenix001 [56]

Answer: $32.70

Explanation:

According to the dividend discount model, the value of the stock today is the present value of the dividends to be paid plus the present value of the value of the dividend from when the company starts maintaining a stable growth rate which in this question in year 2.

= (Year 1 Dividend / ( 1 + r)) + (Year 2 Dividend / ( 1 + r)²) + (value at year 2 / ( r - g))

Value at year 2 = Year 3 dividend / ( required return - growth rate)

= ( Year 2 dividend * (1 + g)) / ( required return - growth rate)

= (2.46* ( 1 + 0.039)) / ( 0.113 - 0.039)

= $34.54

Value today = (Year 1 Dividend / ( 1 + r)) + (Year 2 Dividend / ( 1 + r)²) + (value at year 2 / ( r - g))

= 3.15/1.113 + 2.46/1.113² + 34.54/1.113²

= 2.83 + 1.99 + 27.88

= $32.70
