A rapidly growing company just paid a dividend of $1.50 a share. For the next three years, the earnings growth rate is projected
Lelu [443]

Answer:

$41.66

Explanation:

Let us assume the dividend in year n be denoted by Dn and the Stock price by Pn

Given that,

D0 = $1.50

Now

Growth rate for next 3 years

g1 = 15%

D1 = D0 × (1 + g1)

    = 1.50 × (1 + 0.15)

   = 1.725

D2 = D1 × (1 + g1)

= 1.725 × (1 + 0.15)

= 1.984

D3 = D2 × (1 + g1)

= 1.984 × (1 + 0.15)

= 2.282

Subsequent Growth rate = g2 = 4%

Now  

D4 = D3 × (1 + g2)

     = 2.282 × (1 + 0.04)

     = 2.373

So, According to Gordon's Growth Rate,

P3 = D4 ÷(r - g2)

P3 = 2.373 ÷ (0.09 - 0.04)

    = $47.46

Now  

Value of Stock now  is

= P0

= D1 ÷ (1 + r) + D2 ÷ (1 + r)^2 + D3 ÷ (1 + r)^3 + P3 ÷ (1 + r )^3

= 1.725 ÷ (1 + 0.09) + 1.984 ÷ (1 + 0.09)^2 + 2.282 ÷ (1 + 0.09)^3 + 47.46 ÷ (1 + 0.09)^3

= $41.66

The risk-free rate of return is 5.5%, the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 17%, and the stock of Xyrong Corpor
Katen [24]

Answer:

1. $12.31

2. -11.96%

Explanation:

a) Calculation to determine the intrinsic value of a share of Xyrong stock

First step is to calculate the Required Return

Using this formula

Required Return = Risk-free Rate + [Beta * (Expected Market Return - Risk-free Rate)]

Let plug in the formula

Required Return= 5.5% + [2.7 * (17% - 5.5%)]

Required Return= 5.5% + 31.05% = 36.55%

Second step is to calculate g using this formula

g = ROE * (1 - Payout Ratio)

Let plug in the formula

g= 18% * (1 - 0.25)

g= 13.5%

D0 = EPS0 * Payout Ratio = $10 * 0.25 = $2.50

P0 = [D0 * (1 + g)] / [r - g]

= [$2.50 * (1 + 0.135)] / [0.3655 - 0.135]

= $2.8375 / 0.2305 = $12.31

b). Holding Period Return = [P1 + D1 - P0] / P0

= [$8 + $2.8375 - $12.31] / $12.31 = -$1.4727 / $12.31 = -0.1196, or -11.96%
