If Professor Siegel is correct that stocks are less risky than bonds, then the risk premium on stock may be zero. Assuming that the risk-free interest rate is 2.5 percent, the growth rate of dividends is 1 percent and the current level of dividends is $70, use the dividend-discount model to compute the level of the S&P 500 that is warranted by the fundamentals.

Instruction: Round your response to 2 decimal places.

The level of the S&P 500 is

Answer:

Dividend discount model:

Price= D(1+g)/r-g

g=growth rate 1%

r= as given in question risk free rate 2.5%

D₀= $70

D₁=$70(1+0.01)  with growth rate

Solution:

70(1+0.01)/(0.025-0.01)

=$4713.33

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

The company’s systemic risk level (beta coefficient) is 2.44%

Explanation:

According to Capm Expected Return of Stock = Risk Free Rate + Beta*(Market Return - Risk Free Rate)

Beta = (Expected Return of Stock - Risk freed Rate)/(Market return -Risk free Rate)

        = (12.5% - 1.5%)/(6% - 1.5%)

        =2.44 %
