Answer:

Exxon's response worsened its public standing.

Explanation:

Crisis management is the application of game plan to help an organization deal with a sudden and significant negative event.

The Exxon's response is a perfect example of how company should apply thoughtful response in crisis management because Exxon corporation failed to follow several well-established procedures thereby damaged its public standing, failed to seize control of developments after the spill and sending lower-ranking executive to address the situation instead of the chairman going there himself to take control of  the situation in a possible way.

The action taken by Exxon led to the impression that the company disregard pollution problem by not involving top management.

kkurt [141]

The Question is incomplete.

The complete question is as follows:

It announces that it plans to pay dividends of $1 per share exactly three years from now and $2 per share exactly four years from now. From year 5 onwards, dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate of 10% per year. The company pays no dividends in years one and two. The risk-free rate is 5%, the company's beta is 1.5 and the expected return on the market is 11%. Calculate the price of this stock today

Answer:

Price of stock =  $34.42

Explanation:

<em>The Dividend Valuation Model is a technique used to value the worth of an asset. According to this model, the worth of an asset is the sum of the present values of its future cash flows discounted at the required rate of return.</em>

Required rate of return

Using the CAPM , the rate of return on equity can be determined as follows:

E(r)= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)

E(r) =? , Rf- 5%, Rm- 11%, β- 1.5

Ke = 5% + 1.5× (11-5)%

   = 14%

Present value of Dividends(PV)

Year                                                      PV

3                       $1.00, × (1.14^(-3) =   0.6749

4                        $2.00× 1.14^(-4) =  1.18416

<em>5 and beyond</em>

<em>This will be done in two (2) steps as follows:</em>

PV in year 4 = (2 × 1.10) /(0.14-0.1) = 55

PV in year 0 = 55× 1.14^(-4) = 32.56

Price of stock

=  0.6749  +  1.18416 + 32.56

=  $34.423

Discount on notes payable $246,621.00

(To record purchase of land by issuing note payable)

PV of $606,621 discounted at 11% =606,621/(1.11)^5 = $ 360,000

2.

Computation of the discount on notes payable:

Maturity value $560,000

Present value of $560,000 due in 8 years at 11% = $560,000 * 0.43393 = $ 243,000

Present value of $39,200 payable annually for 8 years at 11% annually—$39,200 * 5.14612 = $ 201,728

Present value of the note = $ 243,000 + $ 201,728 = $ 444,728

Discount = $ 560,000 - $ 444,728 = $ 115,272
