Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The Target stock price in five years is

As we know that

Target stock price in five years = Earnings per share in Year 5 × Benchmark P/E Ratio

where,

Earnings per share in Year 5 is

= D5 ÷ Pay-out Ratio

Now

D0 = $1.15 per share

D1 = $1.15 × 1.10 = $1.265per share

D2 = $1.265 × 1.10 = $ 1.3915

D3 = $1.3915 × 1.10 = $1.53065

D4 = $1.53065 × 1.10 = $1.683715

D5 = $1.683715 x 1.10 = $1.85209

Now

Earnings per share in Year 5 is

= D5 ÷ Pay-out Ratio

= $1.85209 ÷ 0.40

= $4.630225

Now

The Target stock price in five years is

= Earnings per share  in Year 5 × Benchmark P/E Ratio

= $4.630225 × 19 Times

= $87.97;

b. Now the stock price today is to be shown in the spreadsheet below

likoan [24]

Answer:

10%

Explanation:

Value of investment in the beginning = $30,000

Value of investment at the end = $30,000 (1 + 0.08)

                                                    = $30,000 × 1.08

                                                    = $32,400

Interest paid = $15,000 × 6%

                     = $900

Rate of return:

=\frac{Value\ at\ the\ end-Value\ in\ beginning-Interest}{Total\ amount-Borrowed\ amount}\times100

=\frac{32,400-30,000-900}{30,000-15,000}\times 100

=\frac{1,500}{15,000}\times 100

      = 10%

Rate of return is 10% if the price of Telecom stock goes up by 8% during the next year.

Marianna [84]

Answer:

The rate at which to discount the payments to find sum borrowed is 12.68%

Explanation:

The discount rate to be used in computing the sum borrowed can e derived from the effective annual rate formula below:

Effective annual rate = (1 + Quoted interest rate/m)^m - 1

quoted interest rate is 8.40

m is the number of months in a year when compounding is done which is 12

effective annual rate=(1+8.40%/12)^12-1

effective annual rate=(1+0.01)^12-1

effective annual rate=(1.01)^12-1

effective annual rate=1.12682503 -1

effective annual rate=0.12682503=12.68%
