Answer:
9.6845%
Explanation:
Market risk premium = Market return - Risk free rate
7.3 = 11.2 - Risk free rate
Risk free rate = 3.9%
(1) Use CAPM:
Cost of equity = Risk free rate + Beta × Market risk premium
= 3.9% + 1.06(7.3)
= 11.638%
(2) Use DDM
:
Stock price = [Latest dividend × (1 + dividend growth rate)] ÷ (Cost of equity-dividend growth rate)
$17 = [0.92 (1 + 0.022)] ÷ (Cost of equity - 0.022)
Cost of equity = 7.731%
Cost of equity = average value from using DDM and CAPM
Cost of equity = 0.5 (7.731 + 11.638)
= 9.6845%
I believe this is true.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
They must deposit $5,113,636.36.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cash flow= $225,000
Interest rate= 4.4 percent
To determine the amount to be deposited today, we need to use the perpetual annuity formula:
PV= Cf/i
Cf= cash flow
PV= 225,000/0.044
PV= $5,113,636.36
They must deposit $5,113,636.36.
Explanation:
It all depends on the market conventions and the bond documentation.
1 In most countries, traditionally fixed coupon bonds don’t have their coupons day counted. So if the frequency is twice a year, and the annual coupon rate is 5.5%, then each semi-annual coupon is exactly 5.5/2=2.75%. However a lot of other instruments, e.g. fixed swap legs, loans, and bonds that are really “loan participation notes”, etc. usually have their fixed coupons day counted. So each coupon amount will vary a little depending on the number of days in the accrual period, weekends and holidays.
I think it’s D I don’t know if I’m wrong or right but D sounds right
