Kimona Company hired you as a consultant to help estimate its cost of common equity. You have obtained the following data: D0 =
nlexa [21]

Answer:

-2.23%

Explanation:

The formula to compute the cost of common equity under the DCF method is shown below:

= Current year dividend ÷ price + Growth rate

In first case,

The current dividend would be

= $0.85 + $0.85 × 5%

= $0.85 + $0.0425

= $0.8925

The other things would remain the same

So, the cost of common equity would be

= $0.8925 ÷ $20 + 5%

= 0.044625 + 0.05

= 9.46%

In second case,

The price would be $40

The other things would remain the same

So, the cost of common equity would be

= $0.8925 ÷ $40 + 5%

= 0.0223125 + 0.05

= 7.23%

The difference would be

= 7.23% - 9.46%

= -2.23%

Student Version

Merck, in fact, epitomizes the ideological nature--the pragmatic idealism--of highly visionary companies. Our research showed that a fundamental element in the "ticking clock" of a visionary company is a core ideology--core values and a sense of purpose beyond just making money--that guides and inspires people throughout the organization and remains relatively fixed for long periods of time.

Several factors can contribute to long-term organizational success. One is the establishment of a core ideology that Collins and Porras (2002) describe as "core values and sense of purpose beyond just making money" (p. 48). Also, the importance of a visionary leader that guides and inspires people throughout the organization and remains relatively fixed for long periods of time is hard to over emphasize.
