Answer:

Explanation:
Flotation costs are cost that are concerned with issuing new common stock. It is the amount of money or cost incurred by an organization when offering its securities to the public. The cost may include legal fees, auditing fees and registration fees. When the flotation cost goes higher, firms are more likely to use debts rather than preferred stock. This is simply because debt is lesser than both common stock and preferred stock. Also, its fallacy to think that preferred stock doesnt have flotation cost. Its only that its not as high as the ones for new common equity.
Answer:
The price of the stock is $38.33
Explanation:
The dividend growth is zero on a preferred stock thus its dividends are just like a perpetuity as the stocks have no defined life. The formula for the price or value of a perpetuity or the zero growth model is,
P0 = D / r
Where,
D is the dividend
r is the required rate of return
Thus, the price of the stock is:
P0 = 3.22 / 0.084 = $38.33
Answer:
Option (D) is correct.
Explanation:
Given that,
Dividend, D0 = $0.90
Price, P0 = $27.50
Growth rate, g = 7.00% (constant)
D1 = D0 (1 + g)
= $0.90 × (1 + 0.07)
= $0.90 × 1.07
= $0.963
Cost of equity, Ke = [ D1 ÷ P0 ] + g
= [$0.963 ÷ $27.50 ] + 0.07
= 0.0350 + 0.07
= 0.1050 i.e 10.50 %
