Computech Corporation is expanding rapidly and currently needs to retain all of its earnings; hence, it does not pay dividends.

However, investors expect Computech to begin paying dividends, beginning with a dividend of $1.25 coming 3 years from today. The dividend should grow rapidly - at a rate of 32% per year - during Years 4 and 5; but after Year 5, growth should be a constant 6% per year. If the required return on Computech is 17%, what is the value of the stock today? Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round your intermediate calculations.

Answer:

P₀ = $12.23

Explanation:

Div₃ = $1.25

Div₄ = $1.65

Div₅ = $2.178

Div₆ = $2.30868

first we must calculate the terminal value using the dividend discount model = $2.30868 / (17% - 6%) = $20.988

now we must discount all the future dividends + terminal value

P₀ = $1.25/1.17³ + $1.65/1.17⁴ + $2.178/1.17⁵ + $20.988/1.17⁵ = $12.23

A Caterpillar tractor acquired on January 12 at a cost of $171,000 has an estimated useful life of 25 years. Assuming that it wi
Kay [80]

Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation of depreciation for each of the first two years by the straight-line method is shown below:-

Depreciation

= (Assets cost - Salvage value) ÷ Useful life

= ($171,000 - 0) ÷ 25

= $6,840

For First year = $6,840

For Second year = $6,840

It would be the same for the remaining useful life

b. The computation of depreciation for each of the first two years by the double-declining-balance method is shown below:-

First we have to determine the depreciation rate which is shown below:

= One ÷ useful life

= 1 ÷ 25

= 4%

Now the rate is double So, 8%

In year 1, the original cost is $171,000, so the depreciation is $13,680 after applying the 8% depreciation rate

And, in year 2, the ($171,000 - $13,680) × 8% = $12,585.60

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Pn = P0(1+r)∧n

Pnis future value of P0

P0 is original amount invested

r is the rate of interest

n is the number of compounding periods (years, months, etc.)

P(n) = 2250(1+(.03/4)∧8

** since the interest is compounding quarterly, you need to divide the rate by 4, the number of quarters in a year.

Then you would do the math.
