Business
1 answer:
Paladinen [302]3 years ago

Answer:

C. The required rate of return exceeds the coupon value, so the bonds sells at a premium

Explanation:

<em>The required return on a bond = Yield to maturity (Current Market interest rate) * Bond Par value.</em>

<em>Coupon return = Coupon rate of bond * Par value of bond.</em>

There are two types of returns on bonds-

<em>(1) Required rate of return (Yield to maturity related)</em>

<em>(2) Return from capital gain</em>

If the Yield to maturity (YTM) related return is higher than the coupon return, then return from capital gain will be negative i.e. there will be a capital loss, so the bond will trade below par value (at discount).

If the Yield to maturity (YTM) related return is lower than the coupon return, then return from capital gain will be positive i.e. there will be a capital gain, so the bond will trade above par value (at premium).

Hence, the required return rate (YTM related) and return from capital gain, both <em>cancel out each other</em> in a bond.

So, following the concept only option<em> (c) - the </em>required rate of return exceeds the coupon value, so the bonds sells at a premium is not a reason of <em>why the required return on a bond may differ form its par value.</em>

You buy a share of The Ludwig Corporation stock for $21.70. You expect it to pay dividends of $1.00, $1.16, and $1.3456 in Years
Radda [10]

Answer:

21%

Explanation:

Given that,

Cost of share = $21.70

Expect to pay dividend in year 1 = $1.00

Expect to pay dividend in year 2 = $1.16

Expect to pay dividend in year 3 = $1.3456

Expected selling price of share at the end of year 3 = $28.15

Growth rate in Dividends:

= [(Dividend in Year 2 - Dividend in Year 1) ÷ Dividend in Year 1] × 100

= [($1.16 - $1.00) ÷ $1.00] × 100

= 0.16 × 100

= 16%

Expected dividend yield :

= (Dividend in year 1 ÷ Cost of Share ) × 100

= (1.00 ÷ $21.70) × 100

= 0.05 × 100

= 5%

Stock's expected total rate of return:

=  Expected Dividend Yield + Growth rate in Dividends

= 5% + 16%

= 21%
