Answer:
a. $26.67
b. 2.50%
Explanation:
a. Computation of the current value of the stock is given below:-
Price of stock ÷ Required rate of return - Growth rate
= $1.20 ÷ (0.07 - 0.025)
= $1.20 ÷ 0.045
= $26.67
b. Computation of capital gains yield on this stock is shown below:-
= Required rate - Dividend yield
= 7% - ($1.20 ÷ $26.67)
= 7% - 0.04499
= 2.50%
