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%
