Answer:
There's an error in the numbers for this question; I found the correct one and pasted it below;
"Great Lakes Steel Supply is losing significant market share and thus its managers have decided to decrease the firm's annual dividend. The last annual dividend was $1.30 per share but all future dividends will be decreased by 2.75 percent annually. What is a share of this stock worth today at a required return of 15.5 percent? "
Explanation:
Use dividend discount model (DDM) to calculate the stock price
whereby,
P0 = Current price
D0 = Last dividend paid = 130
g = growth rate = -275% or -2.75 as a decimal
r = required return = 155% or 1.55 as a decimal
Next, plug in the numbers to the DDM formula above;
Therefore this stock is worth $6.93
Answer:
By 110,000 the retained earnings reduced by the property dividend.
Explanation:
Retained Earnings: The retained earnings is that earnings which is left after all payments relating to the business expenses, shareholder dividend. The earnings which is to be retained so that it can come in use in near future.
For retained earning calculation, the stock market value is recorded when the date is declared not on distribution date.
So, the calculation is computed below:
As the 50,000 shares is given for every 10 shares. So, first we have to compute for 1 share which comes by dividing shares to number of shares i.e. 50,000 shares ÷ 10 shares = 5,000 for 1 share.
Now, multiply by market value which comes = 5,000 × $22 = $110,000.
So, by 110,000 the retained earnings reduced by the property dividend.

We are asked to calculate the present value of 20,000 in ten years.
<em>Resuming: </em>in this kind of problems we are asked for which lump sum becomes a certain amount in a given period of time at an annual rate
Answer:
1.15
Explanation:
If investment is made in equal proportions, it means that;
weight in risk free ; wRF = 33.33% or 0.3333
Let the stocks be A and B
weight in stock A ; wA = 33.33% or 0.3333
weight in stock B; wB = 33.33% or 0.3333
Beta of A; bA = 1.85
Let the beta of the other stock be represented by "bB"
Beta of risk free; bRF = 0
Beta of portfolio = 1 since it is mentioned that "the total portfolio is equally as risky as the market "
The weight of portfolio is equal to the sum of the weighted average beta of the three assets. The formula is as follows;
wP = wAbA + wBbB + wRF bRF
1 = (0.3333 * 1.85) + (0.3333*bB) + (0.3333 *0)
1 = 0.6166 +0.3333bB + 0
1 - 0.6166 = 0.3333bB
0.3834 = 0.3333bB
Next, divide both sides by 0.3333 to solve for bB;
bB = 0.3834/0.3333
w=bB = 1.15
Therefore, the beta for the other stock would be 1.15
Answer:
True
Explanation:
If there is a more number of compounding periods within a year so it would result into the higher price of future value for lump sum investment in year 0 but the case would be adverse with the present value i.e there is less amount in the present value with regard to lumpsum amount i.e to be recieved in the future date
Hence, the given statement is true
