Answer:

$0.72

Explanation:

The computation of the amount of the last dividend paid is shown below:

Market price of a stock = Last dividend × (1 + growth rate) ÷ Required  rate of return - growth rate

$12.36 = Last dividend × ( 1 + 0.03) ÷ 0.09 - 0.03

$12.36 = Last dividend × (1.03) ÷ 0.06

$12.36 × 0.06 = 1.03 × last dividend

$0.7416 = 1.03 × last dividend

So,

last dividend is

= $0.7416 ÷ 1.03

= $0.72

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer: The standard deviation of the stock is 3.23 percentage

Explanation:

First we shall calculate the epected weighted average return of the stock.

We shall multiply the probability of the scenario with its expected return and then take the sum of the expected returns of different scenarios,

E(x) = (0.2 x 14%) + (0.7 x 8%) + (0.1 x 2%)

E(x) = 8.6%

We shall use the follwing formula to calculate the Variance of the stock,

σ²(x) = ∑ P(x_{i}) × [x_{i} - E(r)]²

σ²(x)  = (0.2) (0.14 - 0.086)² + (0.7) (0.08 - 0.086)² + (0.1) (0.02 - 0.086)²

σ²(x) = 0.001044

To find the standar deviation,

σ(x) = \sqrt{0.001044}

σ(x) = 0.0323109

in percentage it would be 3.23%

Explanation:

The computation of the future value of the cash flow in year 4 is as follows:

= $1,075 × (1.08^3) + $1,210 × (1.08^2) + $1,340 × (1.08^1) + $1,420 ×(1.08^0)

= $1,354.19 + $1,411.34 + $1,447.20 + $1,420  

= $5,632.73

Hence, the future value of the cash flow in year 4 is $5,632.73
