Answer:
The stock A is most valuable as the fair value of Stock A is $100 which is more than the fair value of Stock B ( $83.33) and Stock C ($34.28).
Explanation:
to calculate the fair price of the stocks, we will use the DDM or dividend discount model. The DDM bases the value of a stock on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock.
Let r be the discount rate which is 10%.
a.
The stock is like a perpetuity as it pays a constant dividend after equal intervals of time and for an indefinite period.
The price of this stock can be calculated as,
Price or P0 = Dividend / r
P0 = 10 / 0.1 = $100
b.
The constant growth model of DDM can be used to calculate the price of this stock as its dividends are growing at a constant rate forever.
P0 = D1 / r - g
Where,
- D1 is the dividend for the next period
- r is the cost of equity or discount rate
- g is the growth rate in dividends
P0 = 5 / (0.1 - 0.04)
P0 = $83.33
c.
The price of this stock can be calculated using the present of dividends.
P0 = 5 / (1+0.1) + 5 * (1+0.2) / (1+0.1)^2 + 5 * (1+0.2)^2 / (1+0.1)^3 +
5 * (1+0.2)^3 / (1+0.1)^4 + 5 * (1+0.2)^4 / (1+0.1)^5 + 5 * (1+0.2)^5 / (1+0.1)^6
P0 = $34.28
Answer:
9.35%
Explanation:
Annual coupon amount = Coupon rate × Fave value of bond = 7% × 1,000 = $70.
Expected current yield = Annual coupon amount ÷ Current market price per bond = $70 ÷ $749.04 = 0.0935, or 9.35%.
Therefore, the expected current yield for the next year on this bond issue is 9.35%.
<span>The gdp price index for that year is 300.
This is how we calculate this;
Gdp price index = 100 x nominal gdp / real gdp
=100 x 240 / 80
=24000/80
</span>Gdp price index = 300
Answer: 8.79%
Explanation:
The premium or discount as a percent of NAV will be calculated thus:
NAV will be calculated as:
= (Market value of portfolio - liabilities ) / shares outstanding
= ($310 million - $3million) ÷ 10 million
= $30.7 per share.
Then, the calculation for the discount percent will be:
= (selling price - NAV) / NAV
= ($28 - $30.7) / $30.7
= ($-2.7) / $30.7
= (0.0879)
= 8.79%
Therefore, NAV is trading at discount of 8.79%
