Answer:

equal to 1

Explanation:

Beta refers to a coefficient that denotes the degree of responsiveness of security returns with respect to that of market return. Beta is calculated as,

= \frac{Change\ in\ security\ return}{Change\ in\ market\ return}

which further means, beta is equal to deviation (risk) in security return w.r.t deviation (risk) in market return.

Beta is a measure of systematic risk which is, the market related risk to which whole of stock market is exposed to. Examples of systematic risk would be, change in the inflation rate, political instability, change in state of economy such as boom or recession, etc.

Systematic risk is not a company specific risk and thus, such a risk cannot be eliminated by a company via diversification of investments.

Thus, for a security whose systematic risk is equal to that of the market , it's beta will be equal to one which means the magnitude by which, the market falls or rises, the stock shall also fall or rise by the same margin. It also means the same direction of movement i.e if market rises, stock price would rise by same proportion and vice versa.

The stock of Nogro Corporation is currently selling for $10 per share. Earnings per share in the coming year are expected to be
V125BC [204]

Answer:

a) required rate of return = 10%

b)Also, if there is no growth then Return on Equity will be equal to the Required rate of return. Hence there won't be any change.

c) a cut in the dividend payout to 25% will have no effect  or impact and as such the stock price will remain the same.

A complete elimination of dividend will not affect the stock price as well.

Explanation:

The question is in three parts and will be answered accordingly

a) The Required Rate of Return = (The Dividend Expected for the next year/ Current Price of Stock) + the Growth rate

First, we calculate the Dividend expected per share for the next year

=earnings per share x Dividends pay out ratio

=$2 /$10 = 20%

Secondly, we now calculate the return on equity as follows

= Expected Earnings Per share / Current Selling price

= $2 x (1-50%) = 10%

The third is to calculate the Growth rate =

Return on Equity x (1 - Dividend payout ratio)

= 20% x (1-50%) = 10%

Using this with the formula of required rate of return

= ($1 /$10) +10% = 20%

b) First the assumption is that all earnings were paid as dividend with no reinvestment and in this scenario, the lack of reinvestment will mean no growth. Also, if there is no growth then Return on Equity will be equal to the Required rate of return. Hence there won't be any change.

c) Because the Return on Equity is equal to required rate of return, it means a cut in the dividend payout to 25% will have no effect  or impact and as such the stock price will remain the same.

A complete elimination of dividend will not affect the stock price as well.

The other is seeing how the different parts of a man meet up all in all.

Cindy is taking out a loan today. The cash amount that she will receive today is equal to the present value of the lump sum paym
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

Option E, PURE DISCOUNT.

Explanation:

There are different types of loan, some are; principal only loan, interest only loan, amortized loan, compound loan, pure discount loan...

A pure discount loan is a loan in which the borrower receives money today and repays a single lump at some time in future. It is the simplest form of loan.

Practically, it means the borrower will not pay any interest over the years; instead the interest is earned when the loan is paid back at maturity.

For example, imagine you wanted to borrow $20,000 and pay back twelve months later. The interest and charges came to $2,000, you would receive $18,000 from the lender. But, you would still have to pay back the whole $20,000.

Therefore, since Cindy will be paying a lump sum equal to the cash amount she received today, it means that the lender already calculated the interest and other related charges and then discounted it from the face amount thereby making it equal at the point of repayment. The option that best suits the question is E, the type of loan PURE DISCOUNT.
