Answer:
Bond Price = $580.2640476 rounded off to $580.26
Explanation:
A zero coupon bond is a kind of bond that does not pay interest to the bond holder like other bonds. Instead it is offered at a discount price and pays the par value at maturity. The discount price is calculated using a certain rate which can also be called the implied interest rate on this zero coupon bond. The formula to calculate the price of the zero coupon bond is,
Bond Price = Par Value / (1 + r)^t
Where,
- r is the interest rate or the discount rate
- t is the number of periods to maturity
Bond Price = 1000 / (1+0.115)^5
Bond Price = $580.2640476 rounded off to $580.26

Answer:
C) $27.75
Explanation:
Earnings:
2.00 x 20% = 0.4 (2.00 + 0.40 = 2.40)
2.40 x 20% = 0.48 (2.40 + 0.48 = 2.88)
2.88 x 20% = 0.576 (2.88 + 0.576 = 3.456)
3.46 x 10% = 0.346 (3.46 + 0.346 = 3.806)
3.80 x 10% = 0.38 (3.80 + 0.38 = 4.18)
Dividends:
3.46 x 50% = 1.73
3.80 x 50 % = 1.90
4.18 x 75% = 3.135 ( 50% + 25% = 75%)
P0 = 1.73/[(1.12)^4] + 1.90/[(1.12)^5] + (3.14/(0.12 - 0.05))/1.125
= 27.63
Therefore, If Bean's equity cost of capital is 12%, then the price of a share of Bean's stock is closest to $27.75
