Answer:

The expected price of the stock is $122.03

Explanation:

To calculate the expected price of the stock at the end of the year or at Year 1, we first need to determine the required rate of return on the stock. We will use the CAPM equation to calculate the required rate of return.

The required rate of return is calculated as,

r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)

Where,

  • rRF is the risk free rate
  • rM is the return on market

r = 0.05 + 1 * (0.14 - 0.05)

r = 0.14

We already have the price of the stock today, the D1 and the required rate of return. Using the constant dividend growth model of DDM, we calculate the growth rate in dividends to be,

P0 = D1 / (r - g)

115 = 9 / (0.14 - g)

115 * (0.14 - g)  =  9

16.1 - 115g  =  9

16.1 - 9 = 115g

7.1 / 115 = g

g = 0.0617 or 6.17%

Using the same formula and replacing D1 with D2, we can calculate the price of the stock at the end of the year or at start of Year 1.

P1 = 9 * (1+0.0617)  /  (0.14 - 0.0617)

P1 = $122.03

Pv = - $103

pmt = ($100 × 9.80) ÷ 2 = $4.90

p/yr = 2

n = (14 - 2) × 2 = 24

Fv = $100

Fixed costs÷(selling price -variable costs per unit)

100,000 ÷ (60-40) = 5,000

Anything they sell above this number will start to produce profits for the company
