Answer:

Asset U

Explanation:

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset Q = Expected return / standard deviation

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset Q = 6.5% / 5.5%

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset Q = 1.1818

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset U = Expected return / standard deviation

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset U = 8.8% / 5.5%

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset U = 1.6

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset B = Expected return / standard deviation

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset B = 8.8% / 6.5%

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset B = 1.3538

The  investor should prefer Asset U because its has the highest reward to volatility ratio among the three options.

The last dividend paid by Wilden Corporation was $1.55. The dividend growth rate is expected to be constant at 1.5% for 2 years,
shtirl [24]

Answer:

e)  $37.05

Explanation:

Using the dividend growth model, the value of a stock is the present value of the future dividends receivable discounted at the required rate of return . The required rate of return is given as 12%.

So we discount the year 3 dividend using the dividend growth model formula

P = D (1+g)/r-g

r- rate of return, g = growth rate

Present value of the future dividends:

PV of Year 1 = 1.55(1.015)m × 1.12^(-1)

                     = 1.4047

PV of Year 2 = 1.55 (1.015)(1.015) × 1.12^(-2)

                     =  1.27

PV of Year 3 (this will be done in two steps)

Step 1; PV (in yr 2) of year 3 dividend

= (1.55)(1.015)^2×(1.08)/(0.12-0.08)

=43.114

Step 2 : PV (in yr 2) of year 3 dividend

  =43.114 × (1.12^(-2))

   = 34.37

Best estimate of stock = 1.40 + 1.27 +34.37

                                       = $37.05

Note

To discount the year 3 dividend, we use two steps. The first stp helps get the PV in year 2, and step 3 helps to take it further to the PV in year 0
