Answer:

Current Price of the Share Stock is $ 37.86 (D)

Explanation:

Using dividend valuation method with a constant growth rate assumption, share price is calculated as : Po =D1/(Ke-g).

Where;  Po ⇒Market Value excluding any dividend currently payable

            D1= Do(1+g)⇒Expected dividend in one year's time

            Ke =Required rate of return by shareholders

             g= Dividend growth rate

<u>Calculation</u>

D1 = 5(1+0.06)= $5.3

Hence, Po= 5.3/(0.20-0.06)

            Po=$37.86

The share price is expected to reflect the future expected stream of income i.e  dividends and capital gains ,discounted at an appropriate cost of capital.

Some of the assumptions of dividend valuation method include but not limited to the following:

- it assumed that investors act rationality and in the same way ;

-the dividend either show growth or no growth;

-the discount rate used exceeds the dividend growth rate.

galben [10]

Answer:

b)less than $500,000 today, but a positive amount.

Explanation:

By the virtue of the concepts of compounding and discounting, we understand that $1 today is worth more that $1 in the future.

Where Pv = Present value

Fv = Future value

r = discount rate

t = time

Fv = Pv ( 1 + r)^t

As such If a firm can earn a profit stream of $50,000 per year for 10 years, that profit stream is worth less than $500,000 today, but a positive amount.
