Answer:

total market value is $812.05  million

WACC project discount rate is 8.77%

Explanation:

The firm's market value is the sum of the market values of equity,debt and preferred stock.

Equity=10.1*$49=$494.9 million

debt=235,000*$1000*116%=$272.6 million

preferred stock=450,000*$99=$44.55 million

Total market value                      $812.05  million

WACC=Ke*E/V+Kd*D/V*(1-t)+Kp*P/V

Ke is the cost of equity=4%+1.55(8.9%-4%)=11.60%

Kd= rate(30,$1000*8.9%/2,-$1000*116%,1000)=3.57% semiannually

kd=3.57%*2=7.14%

Kp=5%

WACC=(11.50%*494.9/812.05)+(7.14%*272.6/812.05*(1-0.38)+(5%*44.55/812.05)=8.77%

Suppose Stark Ltd. just issued a dividend of $2.33 per share on its common stock. The company paid dividends of $2.00, $2.08, $2
klasskru [66]

Answer:

arithmetic average growth rate = (4% + 3.37% + 5.12% + 3.1%) / 4 = 3.9%

we need to find the required rate or return (RRR) in the following formula:

stock price = expected dividend / (RRR - growth rate)

  • expected dividend = $2.33 x 1.039 = $2.42
  • stock price = $55
  • growth rate = 0.039

55 = 2.42 / (RRR - 0.039)

RRR - 0.039 = 2.42 / 55 = 0.044

RRR = 0.083 = 8.3%

geometric average growth rate = [(1.04 x 1.0337 x 1.0512 x 1.031)¹/⁴] - 1 = 3.89%

again we need to find the required rate or return (RRR) in the following formula:

stock price = expected dividend / (RRR - growth rate)

  • expected dividend = $2.33 x 1.0389 = $2.42
  • stock price = $55
  • growth rate = 0.0389

55 = 2.42 / (RRR - 0.0389)

RRR - 0.0389 = 2.42 / 55 = 0.044

RRR = 0.0829 = 8.29%
