The firm projects a rapid growth of 40 percent for the next two years and then a growth rate of 20 percent for the following two

il63 [147K]

Answer:

The price of the stock today is $15.63

Explanation:

The three stage Dividend Discount model will be used to calculate the price of this stock as the dividends are growing at three different growth rates. These dividends will be discounted back to calculate the price of the stock today.

The price per share today under this model will be:

P0 = D1 / (1+r) + D2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + Dn / (1+r)^n + [Dn * (1+gC) / (r - gC)] / (1+r)^n

Where,

D1 is the dividend expected for the next period of Year 1.

gC is the constant growth rate or third stage growth rate that will last forever.

P0 = 1.25 / (1+0.2) + 1.25 * (1+0.4) / (1+0.2)^2 + 1.25 * (1+0.4) * (1+0.2) / (1+0.2)^3 + 1.25 * (1+0.4) * (1+0.2)^2 / (1+0.2)^4 +

[1.25 * (1+0.4) * (1+0.2)^2 * (1+0.08) / (0.2 - 0.08)] / (1+0.2)^4

The P0 = $15.625 rounded off to $15.63

32,500 shares of common stock outstanding at a price per share of $80 and a rate of return of 12.95 percent. The firm has 7,350

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

WACC = 11.1%

Explanation:

The weighted Average cost of Capital is the average cost of capital for the different sources of long-term capital available to a firm weighted according to the proportion each source of finance bears to the total capital in the pool.

Market of securities

Common stock = $80 × 32,500= 2,600,000.

Preferred stock = $95.50 × 7,350= 701,925.00

Bond = 407,000/100 × 111.5= 453,805.00

Cost of each capital type

Common stock= 12.95

Preferred stock = (7.90%× 100)/95.50= 8.3%

Bond= 8.11%× (1-0.4)=4.87%

WACC

Type Market Value Cost Market value cost

Common stock 2,600,000. 12.95% 336,700.00

Preferred 701,925.00 8.3% 58,065.00

Bond 453,805.00 4.87% 22,100.30

Total 3,755,730.00 416,865.30

WACC = (416,865.30 / 3,755,730.00) × 100

= 11.1%

WACC = 11.1%
