Answer:
The expected price after 1 year would be$55.5
Explanation:
According to the given data,
Price of the stock (Po) = $50
Dividend after 1year (D1) = $2
Equity cost of capital (KE) =15%
The formula for calculating the price after 1 year i.e.,(P1 ) is
Po = (D1 + P1 )/ 1+KE $50= ($2 + P1) / (1+0.15)
P1 = [$50(1.15)] - $2 = $55.5
Answer: c. Total Assets/ Equity
Explanation:
To measure the Return on Equity with 3 ratios, the <em>DuPont Analysis</em> can be used. This is a technique of deconstructing the Return on Equity ratio into various constituent ratios so that their effect on Return on Equity is better know.

Return on Equity = 
Total Assets/ Equity or the Assets to Shareholder Equity ratio is the answer.
Answer:
The expected rate of return on this stock is 10.31%
Explanation:
The constangt growth model of the DDM approach is used to calculate the price of a share based on the edxpected future dividends from a stock that are growing at a constant rate. The formula for price using constant growth model is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)
Plugging in the values,
65 = 1.7 * (1+0.075) / (r - 0.075)
65 * (r - 0.075) = 1.8275
65r - 4.875 = 1.8275
65r = 1.8275 + 4.875
r= 6.7025 / 65
r = 10.31% or 0.1031
Answer: Forward Integration
Explanation:
Forward integration is a process where a company takes over the control of another company that is further along in the value chain so that it might be able to sell or distribute is goods more effectively. For example, an oil company taking over a petroleum products company.
