Answer:

current share price = $70.53

Explanation:

Share Price:

A share price is the amount it would cost to buy one share in a company.

Formula:

share price = future dividends * Present value of discount factor(16%, time period)

As the company just paid a dividend of $3.45 and dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 28 percent for the next three years so

Dividend for 1st year = (3.45*1.28) = $4.416

Dividend for 2nd year = (4.416*1.28) = $5.65248

Dividend for 3rd year = (5.65248*1.28) = $7.2351744

Now we need to calculate the value for 3rd year.

Formula:

Value after 3rd year = (Dividend for year 3*growth rate) / (required rate-growth rate)

Therefore by putting the values in the above formula, we get

Value after 3rd year = (7.2351744 * 1.074) / (0.16 - 0.074)

Value after 3rd year = $90.35555007

Therefore by putting the values in the share price formula, we get

current share price = 4.416 / 1.16 + 5.65248 / 1.16^2 + 7.2351744/1.16^3 + 90.35555007 / 1.16^3

current share price = $70.53

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Ans,

a) If interest rates suddenly rise by 3 percent, Bill´s bond would drop by -20.02%  and Ted´s bond would go down by -36.07%

.

b) If rates were to suddenly fall by 3 percent, Bill´s bond would rise by 26.79%

and Ted´s bond would rise too by 86.47%

.

Explanation:

Hi, first let´s go ahead and establish the stable scenario, for that we are going to use the information of the problem but we need to add the discount rate of the bond or yield, which is the missing information. All this so this concept can be explained in a better way, so for this example we´ll say that the yield of both bonds is 10% compounded semi-annually, the same units as the coupon. Now we have to use the following formula.

Price=\frac{Coupon((1+Yield)^{n}-1) }{Yield(1+Yield)^{n} } +\frac{FaceValue}{(1+Yield)^{n} }

Where:

Coupon = (%Coupon/2)*FaceValue= (0.104/2)*1,000=52

Yield = we are going to assume 10% annual, that is 5% semi-annual

n = Payment periods (For Bill n=5*2=10, for Ted, n=22*2=44)

So, let´s see what is the price of each bond if the yield was 10% annual compounded semi-annually.

Price(Bill)=\frac{52((1+0.05)^{10}-1) }{0.05(1+0.05)^{10} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.05)^{10} } =1,015.44

In Ted´s case, that is:

Price(Ted)=\frac{52((1+0.05)^{44}-1) }{0.05(1+0.05)^{44} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.05)^{44} } = 1,035.33

Now, if the interest rate (Yield) suddenly goes up by 3%, this is what happens to Bill´s Bond

Price(Bill)=\frac{52((1+0.08)^{10}-1) }{0.08(1+0.08)^{10} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.08)^{10} } = 812.12

If yield goes down by 3%, this is the new price of Bill´s bond.

Price(Bill)=\frac{52((1+0.02)^{10}-1) }{0.02(1+0.02)^{10} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.02)^{10} } =  1,287.44

Now, in the case of Ted, this is what happens to the price if the yield goes up.

Price(Ted)=\frac{52((1+0.08)^{44}-1) }{0.08(1+0.08)^{44} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.08)^{44} } =  661.84

If it goes down by 3%, this would be the price for Ted´s bond.

Price(Ted)=\frac{52((1+0.02)^{44}-1) }{0.02(1+0.02)^{44} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.02)^{44} } =   1,930.56

Now, in percentage, what we need to use is the following formula.

Change=\frac{(VariationValue-BaseValue)}{BaseValue} x100

For example, in the case of Bill´s bond, which yield went up by 3%, this is what we should do.

Change=\frac{(812.12-1,015.44)}{1,015.44} x100=-20.02Percent

So, the price variation is -20.02% if the yield rises by 3%.

This are the results of the prices and calculations for you to answer this question. Best of luck.

                         Bill        Ted                       % (Bill)       %(Ted)

Base Price     $1,015.44    $1,035.33    

(+) 3% Yield  $812.12          $661.84      -20.02%          -36.07%

(-) 3% Yield  $1,287.44     $1,930.56       26.79%            86.47%

Ainat [17]

Answer:

i=4.84%

Explanation:

the key to answer this question, is to remember the model of return for a perpeuity dividend calculation:

Value=\frac{1}{i-k}

where value is the current stock price, i is the dividend yield and k is the growth rate, so applying to this particular case we have

k=3.4/91

k=3.74%

and solving i for the previous formula:

91=\frac{1}{i-0.0374}

0.01098={i-0.0374}

i=4.84\%

Ratling [72]

Answer:

The correct option is A, Samantha weed and Adam will rake because these are the goods each has a comparative advantage in.

Explanation:

The opportunity formula comes handy in this case, which is given below:

opportunity cost formula=what one sacrifices/what one gains

If Samantha were to weed flower beds, opportunity cost is computed thus:

Opportunity cost of Samantha weeding flower beds=8/4= 2 bags of leaves raked

The opportunity of Adam weeding flower beds=25/5 =5 bags of leaves raked.

In a nutshell ,if Samantha weeds flowers they would lose 2 bags of leaves raked while if Adam were to do so same, they would lose 5 bags of leaves raked, conclusively Samantha should weed flower beds since she has lower opportunity, higher comparative advantage
