Answer:

P0 = $41.6666666  rounded off to  $41.67

Explanation:

The constant growth model of dividend discount model (DDM) can be used to calculate the price of the stock today. DDM calculates the price of a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under constant growth DDM is,

P0 = D1 / (r - g)

Where,

D1 is the dividend expected in Year 1 or next year

g is the constant growth rate in dividends

r is the discount rate or required rate of return

We first need to calculate the required rate of return for this company based on the previous growth rate, dividend and current share price prior to announcement.

50 = 4 / (r - 0.04)

50 * (r - 0.04) = 4

50r - 2 = 4

50r = 4 + 2

r = 6 / 50

r = 0.12 or 12%

Now using the post announcement data, the new share price will be,

P0 = 2.5 / (0.12 - 0.06)

P0 = $41.6666666  rounded off to  $41.67

Alchen [17]

Answer: c) if the firm's core competence is based on proprietary technology, entering a joint venture might risk losing control of that technology.

Explanation:

When firms expand into international markets, it is a standard practice to partner with a local company that already has expertise in the market to enable an easier transition.

This creates a problem however because in partnering with the company, the competitive advantage that the company holds could be at risk. This is even more so if the competitive advantage is based on proprietary technology and by entering into a partnership and giving another company access to that technology, there is a risk that control could be lost.
