Answer:

15.01%

Explanation:

The computation of the return on equity is shown below:

Return on equity = Net income ÷ Equity at the end of 2010 × 100

where,

Net income is $539

And, the equity at the end of 2010 is

= Common Stock + Retained Earnings

= $2,890 + $700

= $3,590

So, the return on equity is

= $539 ÷ $3,590  ×  100

= 15.01%

We simply applied the above formula to determine the return on equity

Floyd Industries stock has a beta of 1.20. The company just paid a dividend of $.50, and the dividends are expected to grow at 6
djyliett [7]

Answer:

a.

r = 0.06697 or 6.697% rounded off to 6.70%

b.

r = 0.1202 or 12.02%

Explanation:

a.

Using the constant growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock today. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under this model is,

P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)

Where,

  • D0 * (1+g) is dividend expected for the next period /year
  • g is the growth rate
  • r is the required rate of return or cost of equity

Plugging in the values for P0, D0 and g in the formula, we can calculate the value of r to be,

76 = 0.5 * (1+0.06) / (r - 0.06)

76 * (r - 0.06) = 0.53

76r - 4.56 = 0.53

76r = 0.53 + 4.56

r = 5.09 / 76

r = 0.06697 or 6.697% rounded off to 6.70%

.

Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.  

The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,

r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)

Where,

rRF is the risk free rate

rM is the market return

r = 0.059 + 1.2 * (0.11 - 0.059)

r = 0.1202 or 12.02%

Andrej [43]

Answer:

The amount to deposited = $1,538,461.54

Explanation:

<em>A fund that pays a fixed amount for forever is an example of a perpetuity. Hence, the amount to be deposited today is the present value of the perpetuity.</em>

This given below as follows:

PV = A ×   1/r

PV - present value of perpetuity

r- Interest rate = 6.5%. A- annual cash flow - 100,000

PV = 100,000 ×  1/0.065=  1,538,461.54  

The amount to deposited = $1,538,461.54
