You own 300 shares of Somner Resources' preferred stock, which currently sells for $39 per share and pays annual dividends of $5.50 per share. If the market's required yield on similar shares 12% is percent, should you sell your shares or buy more?
Solution as mentioned below:
First of all we need to calculate value of the preferred stock by dividing the annual dividend per share from the market required rate.
Value of preferred stock = 5.50 / 12%
Value of preferred stock = $45.83
Now given the fact that the current price at which the stocks are sold is $39 which is less than the price at which they are actually valued which is $45.83. You should buy more of the shares as they are currently undervalued.
The correct answer is choice D.
