Answer:

Annual Coupon rate = 0.040005 or 4.0005% rounded off to 4.00%

Explanation:

To calculate the price of the bond today, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is a semi annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,

Coupon Payment (C) = C

Total periods (n) = 12 * 2 = 24

r or YTM = 0.0537 * 6/12 = 0.02685 or 2.685%%

The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.

We will first calculate the value of semi coupon payment  made by the bond.

880 = C * [( 1 - (1+0.02685)^-24) / 0.02685]  + 1000 / (1+0.02685)^24

880 = C * 17.52482779  +  529.4583737

880 -  529.4583737  =  C * 17.52482779

350.5416263 / 17.52482779 = C

C = 20.0025718 rounded off to 20.00

 

The annual coupon payment will be = 20.0025718  * 2 = 40.00514361 rounded off to 40.01

Annual Coupon rate = 40.00514361  / 1000 = 0.040005 or 4.0005% rounded off to 4.00%

You are considering purchasing stock in Canyon Echo. You feel the company will increase its dividend at 4.4 percent indefinitely
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer: $50.83

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, the following can be deduced:

r = required return = 10.6% = 0.106

D0 = Dividend = 3.29

g = growth rate = 4.4% = 0.044

The price per share of the company's stock will be:

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

= 3.29(1 + 0.044)/(0.106 - 0.044)

= 3.29(1.044)/(0.062)

= 3.15134/0.062

= $50.83
