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
Answer:
Explanation:
Solution-
According to Senator Jones, the elasticity of taxable income is larger, which means that due to a certain percentage rise in taxes, the taxable income rises by a greater percentage. Also, according to Senator Smith, the elasticity of taxable income is small, which means that due to a certain percentage rise in taxes, the taxable income rises by a smaller percentage.
(I) Under Senator Jones assumptions, due to rise in taxes, the taxable income has risen considerably as compared to Senator Smith assumptions. Thus the estimates of additional revenue from the tax increase will be larger under Senator Jones assumptions, compared to Smith's assumptions.
(ii) Since under Senator Jones assumptions, elasticity of taxable income is large. So due to rise in taxes, there is a significant proportional rise in taxable income under Jone's assumptions compared to Senator Smith assumptions. Thus the costs of the tax increase is borne more under Senator Jones assumptions , compared to Smith's assumptions.
