Answer:

Stock Y has overvalued and Stock Z as undervalued

Explanation:

In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below

Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

For Stock Y

= 4.85% + 1.40 × 7.35%

= 4.85% + 10.29%

= 15.14%

For Stock Z

= 4.85% + 0.85 × 7.35%

= 4.85% + 6.2475%

= 11.0975%

The (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also called market risk premium and the same is applied in the answer

As we see the expected return of both the stock So, Stock Y has overvalued and Stock Z as undervalued

1) You are indecisive about which stock to buy Microsoft, which is selling for $173 a share; or Apple, which is selling for $285
almond37 [142]

Answer:

I would buy the APPLE stock

Explanation:

Microsoft stock price = $173  

dividends earned = $4, $5 and $5.5

value after 3 years = $190

Apple stock price = $285

Dividends earned = $5.5, $8.5 and $10.5

value after 3 years = $330

Applying the dividend discount model

IVO = present value of dividend + present value of terminal price

for Microsoft

IVO = ( 4/1.1 + (5/(1.1/2)) + ( 5.5/(1.1/3)) + ( 190/(1.1/3))

      = $154.65  

for Apple

IVO = ( 5.5/1.1 + ( 8.5/( 1.1/2)) + (10.5/(1.1/3)) + ( 330/(1.1/3))

       = $267.8

Note: the IVO's are less than the current price of the stocks ( IVO = the intrinsic value of the shares ) but Microsoft shares are overpriced compared to apple

Answer:

The amount of deposit is 369.77 dollars

Explanation:

We can calculate the amount of deposit using present value and the number of payment periods, which is 17. It tells us about the value of our future income as measured in today's dollars. Future value for all four years is 1600 dollars. Formula for present value is future value/(1+interest rate)^number of periods. In this case it will be 1600/1.09^17 or 1600/4.327 equals 369.77.
