Answer:

Do =  $2.00

D1= Do(1+g)1 =  $2(1+0.1)1 = $2.20

D2= Do(1+g)2 = $2(1+0.1)2 = $2.42

PHASE 1

V1 = D1/1+ke + D2/(1+ke)2  

V1 = 2.20/(1+0.11) + 2.42/(1+0.11)2  

V1 = $1.9820 + $1.9641

V1 = $3.9461

PHASE 2

V2 = DN(1+g)/ (Ke-g )(1+k e)n                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        V2 = $2.42(1+0.03)/(0.11-0.03)(1+0.11)2      

V2 = $2.4926/$0.0649

V2 = $38.4068

The current stock price is calculated as follows:

Po = V1 + V2

Po = $3.9461 + $38.4068

Po = $42.35

Explanation: This question relates to valuation of shares with 2-phase growth model.  The value of shares in the first phase will be determined by discounting the dividend for the 2 years by cost of equity. The dividends for year 1 and year 2 were obtained by subjecting the current dividend paid (Do) to growth rate.  

Moreso, the value of shares for the second phase was calculated by considering the last dividend paid(D2) and then subject it to the new growth rate. The adjusted dividend was then capitalized at the appropriate discount rate of the company.

If there are too few respondents in the lowest income category, this category may be combined or merged with the next lowest cat
Nostrana [21]

Answer: E) Recoding

Explanation:

Recoding refers to the changing of a variable to better suit the needs for which the variable is being collected.

The variable's parameters can be redefined using recoding to either include more information or less so that the result can be more reflective of the situation on ground.

In mixing the lowest income category with the next lowest, recoding would have occurred.

A bond has a face value of $1,000, a coupon of 4% paid annually, a maturity of 30 years, and a yield to maturity of 7%. What rat
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

-11.8%

Explanation:

the key to answer this question is to remember that valuation of a bond depends basically of calculating the present value of a series of cash flows, so let´s think about a bond as if you were a lender so you will get interest by the money you lend (coupon) and at the end of n years you will get back the money you lend at the beginnin (principal), so applying math we have the bond value given by:

price=\frac{principal*coupon}{(1+i)^{1} }+ \frac{principal*coupon}{(1+i)^{2} } \frac{principal*coupon}{(1+i)^{3} }+...+\frac{principal+principal*coupon}{(1+i)^{n} }

so in this particular case that one year later there are 29 years to maturity so we have:

price=\frac{1,000*0.04}{(1+0.08)^{1} }+ \frac{1,000*0.04}{(1+0.08)^{2} } \frac{1000*0.04}{(1+0.08)^{3} }+...+\frac{1,000+1,000*0.04}{(1+0.08)^{30} }

price=553.6638

so as we have a higher rate the investment has the next return:

return=\frac{553.66}{627.73} -1

return=-11.8\%
