Goodwin Technologies, a relatively young company, has been wildly successful but has yet to pay a dividend. An analyst forecasts

that Goodwin is likely to pay its first dividend three years from now. She expects Goodwin to pay a $2.75000 dividend at that time (D₃ = $2.75000) and believes that the dividend will grow by 14.30000% for the following two years (D₄ and D₅). However, after the fifth year, she expects Goodwin’s dividend to grow at a constant rate of 3.72000% per year.
Goodwin’s required return is 12.40000%. Fill in the following chart to determine Goodwin’s horizon value at the horizon date (when constant growth begins) and the current intrinsic value.
To increase the accuracy of your calculations, do not round your intermediate calculations, but round all final answers to two decimal places.
Term Value
Horizon value $42.93
Current intrinsic value $29.84
1. If investors expect a total return of 13.40%, what will be Goodwin's expected dividend and capital gains yield in two years-that is, the year before the firm begins paying dividends?
2. Is this statement a possible explanation for why the firm hasn't paid a dividend yet?
A. Yes
B. NO

Answer:

horizon value at year 5 = Div₆ / (Re - g)

  • Div₆ = ($2.75 x 1.143²) x 1.0372 = $3.726384483
  • Re = 12.4%
  • g = 3.72%

horizon value at year 5 = $3.726384483 / (12.4% - 3.72%) = $42.93

current value P₀ = $2.75/1.124³ + $3.14325/1.124⁴ + $46.52273/1.124⁵ = $1.937 + $1.969 + $25.932 = $29.838 ≈ $29.84

1) dividend yield = 0/$29.84 = 0%

capital gains yield = (P₁ - P₀) / P₀

P₁ = $2.75/1.124 + $3.14325/1.124² + $46.52273/1.124³ = $2.447 + $2.488 + $32.762 = $37.697 ≈ $37.70

capital gains yield = ($37.70 - $29.84) / $29.84 = 26.34%

2) Goodwin has yet to record a profit (positive net income). Is this statement a possible explanation for why the firm hasn't paid a dividend yet?

A. Yes

Since dividends must be paid out from net profits or retained earnings.

In her research paper, Kirstein copied a few paragraphs from a renowned author's work verbatim without placing them within quota
Effectus [21]

Answer:

Word-for-word.

Explanation:

Word for word plagiarism is seen to be an unethical form of writing where the said student or researcher is seen to copy a fellow researchers works verbatim and particularly word for word with also quotation marks too. In as much as this is a bad form for writers, people are always seen to commit themselves in still doing it. This can cause a lawsuit in some places depending on the researcher whose work is been stolen/copied.

In all, it is been tagged an act of intellectual dishonesty which comes with uneasy consequences when it is done to a wrong person; a plagiarized assignment may lead to a failing grade, a suspension, or an expulsion.

  • On December 31, it was recorded an adjusting entry to interest expense of $200.
  • On January 30, which is the due date of the note, Wright will record the payment with a debit to Interest Expense in the amount of $100.

You have borrowed $28,000 at an interest rate of 12% compounded annually. Equal payments will be made over a four-year period, w
Sloan [31]

Answer:

A = 28000 [\frac{0.12 (1.12)^4}{(1.12)^4 -1}]

A = 28000 [\frac{0.12*1.574}{1.574-1}]

A=28000*0.3292 = 9218.564

So then the annual pay would be $ 9218.564 for this case

Explanation:

For this question we can use the Equivalent annual value (A) given by the following expression:

A = PV [\frac{i (1+i)^t}{(1+i)^t -1}]

Where PV = 28000 represent the pesent value

i = 0.12 since the rate is yearly

t = 4 since we have 4 years to pay

So then we have everything to replace and we got:

A = 28000 [\frac{0.12 (1.12)^4}{(1.12)^4 -1}]

A = 28000 [\frac{0.12*1.574}{1.574-1}]

A=28000*0.3292 = 9218.564

So then the annual pay would be $ 9218.564 for this case

And this amount would be paid each year in order to pay all the money after 4 years.
