Answer:
(a) $10 million
(b) $1 per share
(c) $49
(d) 25 %
Explanation:
(a) Estimated net earnings for next year.
Sales next year = $100 million
Net profit margin = 10%
Net profit margin = Net Income ÷ Sales
Net Income = 10% × $100 million
= $10 mil
lion
(b) Next year's dividends per share.
Dividend payout = Dividends paid ÷ Net Income
= 50%
Dividends paid = $10 × 50%
= $5 mil
lion
Per share dividend = Dividend paid ÷ Shares outstanding
= $5 million ÷ 5 million
= $1 per share
(c) The expected price of the stock (assuming the P/E ratio is 24.5 times earnings).
Earnings per share:
= Net income ÷ shares outstanding
= $10 million ÷ 5 million
= $2 per share
P/E Ratio = Price per share ÷ Earnings per share
Price per share = $2 × 24.5
= $49
(d) The expected holding period return (latest stock price: $40 per share).
= (Final price - Initial price + Dividend) ÷Initial Price
= ($49 - $40 + $1) ÷ $40
= 25%

Answer:
Annual contributions to the retirement fund will be $6,347.31
Explanation:
First find the Present Value of the Annuity giving payments of $32,000 annually for 25 years at the rate of 10%.
Using a Financial Calculator enter the following data
PMT = $32,000
P/y = 1
N = 25
R = 10%
FV = 0
Thus, the Present Value, PV is $290,465.28
At the time of retirement (in 20 years time) the Value of the annuity fund is $290,465.28.
Next we need to find the Payments PMT to reach this amount in 20 years time at the interest rate of 8%
Using a Financial Calculator enter the following data
FV = $290,465.28
N = 20
R = 8 %
PV = $0
Thus, the Payments, PMT required will be $6,347.3080
Conclusion :
Annual contributions to the retirement fund will be $6,347.31
