Suppose firm X just paid its annual dividend of $2.00 per share. You expect that the firm will continue to pay $2.00 per share (

per year) for the next 10 years (times t=1 through 10), after which point you expect that the annual dividend per share will grow by 12% every year thereafter (forever). If the required rate of return is 15%, what is the current price per share?

Answer:

Current price per share = $10.54

Explanation:

Note: See the attached file for the calculation of present values (PV) for year 1 to 10 dividends.

From the attached excel file, we have:

Total of dividends from year 1 to year 10 = $10.0375372517085

Year 10 dividend = $0.494369412243732

Therefore, we have:

Year 11 dividend = Year 10 dividend * (100% + Dividend growth rate after year 10) = $0.494369412243732 * (100% + 12%) = $0.55369374171298

Share price at year 10 = Year 11 dividend / (Required return rate - Dividend growth rate after year 10) = $0.55369374171298 / (15% + 12%) = $2.05071756189993

PV of share price at year 10 = Share price at year 10 / (100% + Required return rate)^Number of years = $2.05071756189993 / (100% + 15%)^10 = $0.506906017877183

Therefore, we have:

Current price per share = Total of dividends from year 1 to year 10 + PV of share price at year 10 = $10.0375372517085 + $0.506906017877183 = $10.54

What is the reason it's better to underestimate your income instead of overestimating when creating your budget?
Alik [6]

Answer:

  • <em>Underestimating your income is a conservative and healthy measure that can avoid financial problems.</em>

Explanation:

<em>Underestimating</em> your <em>income</em> is a conservative and healthy measure, such as it is overestimating your expenses.

Specially when your income is variable iit can be hard to predict. You will be safer both if your income lowers or your unpredictable expenses increase.

There are many unpredictable situations that could put you in a difficult situation: a disease, a natural disaster, the need to help a family member or friend in trouble. If any of these unfortunate circumstances arises and your budget is too tight, you could see yourself in financial trouble.

But, if you if all is smooth you will have in a happy situation, you will have a surplus which can use for savings, for an important purchase, or for vacations.

It is better to be cautious than to regret later!

Tomtit [17]
<span>Imagine an economy in which:
(1) pieces of paper called yollars are the only thing that buyers give to sellers when they buy goods and services, so it would be common to use, say, 50 yollars to buy a pair of shoes;
(2) prices are posted in terms of yardsticks, so you might walk into a grocery store and see that, today, an apple is worth 2 yardsticks; and
(3) yardsticks disintegrate overnight, so no yardstick has any value for more than 24 hours.

In this economy, the yardstick is a unit of account but it cannot serve as a store of value.</span>
