Answer:

The required rate of return is 7.20%

Explanation:

The price of a share that pays a particular dividend amount in perpetuity is given by the below formula:

price of share=dividend/required rate of return

price of share is $91.00 per share

dividend payable in perpetuity is $6.55

required rate of return is unknown

$91=$6.55/required rate of return

required rate of return =$6.55/$91

                                       =7.20%

to confirm the required of return,I divided the by the required rate of return as shown below:

6.55/0.0.72=$90.97 .approximately $91

That is a way to validate the computed required rate of return

maxonik [38]

Answer:

Payout ratio =1- 12.96%*45%*9/1.4 = 0.6252 or 62.52%

Explanation:

WACC = Weight of Equity * Cost of Equity + Weight of Debt * (1-Tax rate) * Cost of Debt

16% = 45%* Cost of Equity + 55%*(1-40%)*9%

16%-55%*(1-40%)*9% = 45%*Cost of Equity

Cost of Equity = 28.9556%

Current price of Stock = D1/(Cost of Equity - Growth)

25 = 4/(28.9556%-Growth)

Growth = 28.9556%-4/25 = 12.96%

ROE = Net income/Equity = 1.4/(45%*9)

Growth rate = (1- Payout ratio)*ROE

12.96% = (1-Payout ratio)*  1.4/(45%*9)

Payout ratio =1- 12.96%*45%*9/1.4 = 0.6252 or 62.52%
