Answer:
What is the expected dividend yield for Portman's stock today?
d. 6.40%
Suppose Portman is considering issuing 62,500 new shares at a price of $26.78 per share. If the new shares are sold to outside investors, by how much will Judy's investment in Portman Industries be diluted on a per-share basis?
a. $0.52 per share
Thus, Judy's investment will be diluted, and Judy will experience a total loss of $0.52 x 7,500 = $3,900
Explanation:
cost of equity = Re = risk free rate of return + (Beta × market premium) = 5% + (0.90 x 6%) = 10.4%
dividend in one year = $1.68 x 120% = $2.016
intrinsic stock price = $2.016 / (10.4% - 4%) = $31.50
expected dividend yield = dividend / stock price = $2.016 / $31.50 = 6.4%
Judy's loss per share = ($31.50 - $26.78) x (62,500 / 562,500) = $0.5244

On the flip side, in a pure or perfect competition there are various competitors selling the same product or service as you. The main difference between these two are that a monopoly involves no competition at all while a pure competition involves a high level of competition. (the first choice)
The second choice is incorrect because it is harder to establish a product in a pure competition market because you are competing with other companies.
The third choice is incorrect because a monopoly refers to a company with a product or service and no competition whereas a pure competition refers to one with the same products or services.
The forth choice is incorrect because they can be present in various economy structures.
