Answer:

Estimate of the stock's current price=$132.71

Explanation:

Price of the stock today = \frac{D1}{(1+ke)^1}+\frac{D2}{(1+ke)^2}+\frac{D3}{(1+ke)^3}+\frac{P3}{(1+ke)^3}.

where D_1= D_0*(1+g)=2.2(1.22)=2.684

and ke  using CAPM = r_f+b(r_m-r_f) = 0.065+1.4(0.02)=0.093

and P3= \frac{D4}{ke-g}

Estimate of the stock's current price = \frac{2.684}{(1+0.093)^1}+\frac{2.684(1.22)}{(1+0.093)^2}+\frac{2.684(1.22)(1.07)}{(1+0.093)^3}+\frac{2.684(1.22)(1.07^2)}{(0.093-0.07)(1+ke)^3} = 132.71

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

A.- DECREASE

B.- DECREASE

C.- INCREASE

D.- INCREASE

E.- INCREASE

Explanation:

a. The discount rate increases

DECREASE the discoutn factors will be higher therefore, the present values lower.

b. The cash flows are in the form of a deferred annuity, and the total to $100,000. You learn that the annuity lasts for 10 years rather than 5 years, hence that each payment is for $10,000 rather than for $20,000

DECREASE Because the cashflow is generate on a longer period there is more exposure to discount rates.

c. The discount rate decreases

INCREASE The discount factor are lower. This situation is the opposite as (a)

d. The riskiness of the investment's cash flows <u>decreases</u>

INCREASE a lower risk derivates in lower cost of capital thus, lower iscount rates. This increase the present value of the cashflow.

e. The total amount of cash flows remains the same, but more of the cash flows are received in the earlier years and less are received in the later years.

INCREASE as most of the future cash flows are at the beginning they have less exposure to time value of money.

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Reduction in work in progress = $7500

Explanation:

given data

time = 10 hours

time = 15 hours

worth  = $1,500

to find out

reduction in work in process value

solution

we find work in progress   by this formula

work in progress  = Flow rate  × Cycle Time     .......................1

so Initial work in progress is

Initial work in progress   = (1 per hour)  × 10 hours = 10

and Final work in progress is here

Final work in progress   = (1 per hour) × 15 hours = 15

so

Initial work in progress   value = 10  × 1500

Initial work in progress   value= $15000

and

Final work in progress    value =15  × 1500

Final work in progress    value = $22500

so

Reduction in work in progress = $22500 - $15000

Reduction in work in progress = $7500
