Answer:

a)P_5 = $161.3

b) P'_5 = $176

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- The earnings per share today Eo = $6.07

- The P/E ratio = 16.5

- The growth rate of dividend R = 10 %

Find:

a) What would be the stock price in five years if the P/E ratio remained unchanged?

b) What would the price be if the P/E ratio increased to 18 in five years?

Solution:

- The factor of increase per year of dividend can be determined:

                          1  -----------> 100

                          x   ----------> 110

                          x = 110*1 / 100 = 1.1

- The value of earnings/ share in n number of years time is given by:

                          E_n = Eo*x^n

                          E_5 = $6.07*1.1^5

                          E_5 = $9.7757957

- The Price of the stock is expressed by the ratio:

                          P_n / E_n = 16.5

                          P_5 = 16.5*E_5

                          P_5 = 16.5*$9.7757957

                          P_5 = $161.3

- If the P/E ratio decreases to 18 in 5 years then stock price while earnings increased at rate of 10% is:

                          P'_5 = 18*$9.7757957

                          P'_5 = $176

The star aldebaran, visible from earth, lies about 65 light years away from us. What is the minimum amount of time that would be
makkiz [27]
A beam of light (travelling at the speed of light) would take 65 years to go and 65 years to come back from aldebaran, i.e. 130 years. You can send and receive a radio message (travelling at the speed of light, being electromagnetic radiation) taking so 130 years.

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{2}{3} x - 4 = - 2

Multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction

2x - 12 = - 6 ( add 12 to both sides )

2x = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 3
