The market capitalization treasure on the stock of flex steel company is 12%. the expected ROE is 13% and the expected EPS are 3
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

a. ROE (r) = 13% = 0.13

EPS = $3.60

Expected dividend (D1) = 50% x $3.60 = $1.80

Plowback ratio (b) = 50% = 0.50

Cost of equity (ke) = 12% = 0.12

Growth rate = r x b

Growth rate = 0.13 x 0.50 = 0.065

Po= D1/Ke-g

Po = $1.80/0.12-0.065

Po = $1.80/0.055

Po = $32.73

P/E ratio = <u>Current market price per share</u>

                  Earnings per share

P/E ratio = <u>$32.73</u>

                 $3.60

P/E ratio = 9.09        

b.  ER(S) = Rf + β(Rm - Rf)

    ER(S) = 5 + 1.2(13 - 5)

    ER(S) = 5 + 9.6

    ER(S) = 14.6%

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     

Explanation:

In the first part of the question, there is need to calculate the expected dividend, which is dividend pay-our ratio of 50% multiplied by earnings per share. We also need to calculate the growth rate, which is plowback ratio multiplied by ROE. Then, we will calculate the current market price, which equals expected dividend divided by the difference between return on stock (Ke) and growth rate. Finally, the price-earnings ratio is calculated as current market price per share divided by earnings per share.

In the second part of the question, Cost of equity (return on stock) is a function of risk-free rate plus beta multiplied by market risk-premium. Market risk premium is market return minus risk-free rate.

Two isolated nations, Alphaland and Betaton, are considering opening their borders to trade with each other. Both nations consum
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

5 tons of salt for 1 ton of pepper

10 tons of salt for 1 ton of pepper

Explanation:

Alphaland's opportunity cost of producing one ton of pepper = 80 ÷ 5

                                                                            = 16 tons of salt

Betaton's opportunity cost of producing one ton of pepper = 3 ÷ 1

                                                                            = 3 tons of salt

Alphaland's opportunity cost of producing one ton of salt = 5 ÷ 80

                                                                            = 0.0625 tons of pepper

Betaton's opportunity cost of producing one ton of salt = 1 ÷ 3

                                                                            = 0.3333 tons of pepper

Therefore, Betaton has a comparative advantage in producing pepper because it has the lower opportunity cost of producing pepper as compared to Alphaland. On the other hand, Alphaland has a comparative advantage in producing salt because it has the lower opportunity cost of producing salt as compared to Betaton.

Hence, Betaton is specialized in the production of pepper and Alphaland is specialized in the production of salt.

Trade is beneficial for both the nations when Alphaland buys pepper at a price lower than the 16 tons of salt and Betaton sells pepper at a price greater than 3 tons of salt.

Trade ratios:

5 tons of salt for 1 ton of pepper

10 tons of salt for 1 ton of pepper
