Answer:
$9.687
Explanation:
Given:
Year 3 dividend = $1.00
Year4&5 growth rate = 17%
Constant rate = 7%
Required return rate = 16%
Year 4 dividend wil be:
D4 = 1.00 * 1+growth rate
= 1.00 * (1+0.17)
= $1.17
Year 5 dividend=
D5 = $1.17 * (1+0.17)
= $1.3689
Value of stock after year 5 will be given as:
= $16.2747
For the current value of stock, we have:
Cv= Fd* Pv of discounting factor
Where Cv = current value of stock
Fd = future dividend
Pv = Present value of discounting factor
Therefore,
=$9.6871382455
≈ $9.687
The value of stock today =
$9.687
Answer: B. Maintaining a steady dividend is a key goal of most dividend-paying companies.
Explanation:
Companies that pay dividends prefer in general, to maintain a steady dividend overtime. This does not necessarily mean that they will pay the same amount of dividend but rather that they will pay out dividends as within a certain percentage range of the net income.
Companies do not prefer to cut dividends so as not to send the wrong message so A is wrong. Share repurchases reduces agency costs so C is wrong. Short term fluctuations in cash flow are not the key favor in determining dividend policy as the company might still pay out the same regardless so this is wrong as well. Option B is the best answer.
