Answer:
The value of the stock today is $20
Explanation:
Using the CAPM equation, we first calculate the required rate of retunr on the stock.
The equation for CAPM is,
r = rRF + Beta * rpM
Where,
- rRF is the risk free rate
- rpM is the risk premium on market
- Beta * rpM is the risk premium on stock
r = 0.05 + 0.04
r = 0.09 or 9%
The value of the stock can be calculated using the zero growth model of DDM. The DDM values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. As the dividend from the stock is expected to remain constant through out to an indefinite period, the value of the stock today is,
P0 = Dividend / r
P0 = 1.8 / 0.09
P0 = $20
Answer:
A. Debit Cash $8,614; credit Dividend Revenue $8,614.
Explanation:
The journal entry for recording the dividend as on April 15 is shown below:
On April 15
Cash Dr (7,300 shares × $1.18 per share) $8,614
To Dividend revenue $8,614
(Being the dividend is recorded)
For recording this here we debited the cash as it increased the assets and credited the dividend revenue as the revenue is also increased
Therefore the correct option is A.
Answer: $245
Explanation:
If the required return on the stock is 7 percent, the current share price would be calculated as:
= 6.60/1.07 + 17.60/1.07^2 + 22.60/1.07^3 + 4.40/1.07^4 + [(4.4 × 1.0525) / (7%-5.25%)] / 1.07^4
= $245.23
= $245 approximately
Therefore, the current share price will be $245
