Answer:
a. ROE (r) = 13% = 0.13
EPS = $3.60
Expected dividend (D1) = 50% x $3.60 = $1.80
Plowback ratio (b) = 50% = 0.50
Cost of equity (ke) = 12% = 0.12
Growth rate = r x b
Growth rate = 0.13 x 0.50 = 0.065
Po= D1/Ke-g
Po = $1.80/0.12-0.065
Po = $1.80/0.055
Po = $32.73
P/E ratio = <u>Current market price per share</u>
Earnings per share
P/E ratio = <u>$32.73</u>
$3.60
P/E ratio = 9.09
b. ER(S) = Rf + β(Rm - Rf)
ER(S) = 5 + 1.2(13 - 5)
ER(S) = 5 + 9.6
ER(S) = 14.6%
Explanation:
In the first part of the question, there is need to calculate the expected dividend, which is dividend pay-our ratio of 50% multiplied by earnings per share. We also need to calculate the growth rate, which is plowback ratio multiplied by ROE. Then, we will calculate the current market price, which equals expected dividend divided by the difference between return on stock (Ke) and growth rate. Finally, the price-earnings ratio is calculated as current market price per share divided by earnings per share.
In the second part of the question, Cost of equity (return on stock) is a function of risk-free rate plus beta multiplied by market risk-premium. Market risk premium is market return minus risk-free rate.
Answer:
B. Executive Summary
Explanation:
Executive Summary is a business plan which comes first and should be written last
Answer: 12.86 years.
Explanation: Rule of 72 says that to know in how many years the amount can double can be done by using the interest rate. The rule of 72 says that 72 divided by the annual interest rate will give the number of years it will take to double the amount.
Rule of 72:
Rate of interest = 5.60%/4
Number of years to double the investment = 72 ÷ 1.4
Number of years to double the investment = 51.43/4 = 12.86 years
Therefore, it will take 12.86 years for the $1850 to get double to $3700.
Answer:
The correct answer is A
Explanation:
GDP stands for Gross Domestic Product, it measures the economic activity value within a Country. It is the total of the market prices or the values of all the final goods and the services produced in the economy.
When the economy is private as well as closed, then the GDP is more than the aggregate expenditure, then the savings from the household exceed the planned investment.
