Floyd Industries stock has a beta of 1.25. The company just paid a dividend of $.40, and the dividends are expected to grow at 5
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

5.62%

13.75%

Explanation:

According to the DDM method,

the value of a stock = [dividend x ( 1 + growth rate)] / [cost of equity - growth rate]

67 = 0.4(1.05) / r - 0.05

multiply both sides of the equation by r -0.05

67(r - 0.05) = 0.42

divide both sides of the equation by 67

r - 0.05 = 0.006269

r = 0.0563

= 5.63%

b. the cost of equity using the capm method =

risk free rate of return + beta x ( expected return - risk free return)

5% + 1.25 x (12 - 5) = 13.75%

stellarik [79]

Answer:

current intrinsic value per stock = $26.35

Explanation:

year                      dividend              EPS

0                              0                       $18

1                               0                       $20.88

2                              0                       $24.22

3                              0                       $28.10

4                              0                       $32.59

5                              0                       $37.81

6                              $12.59              $41.97

growth rate up to year 5 = 16%

ROE growth rate starting year 6 = 11%

dividend growth rate starting year 6 = 11% x (1 - 30%) = 7.7%

cost of equity = 24%

horizon value at year 5 = $12.59 / (24% - 7.7%) = $77.24

current intrinsic value per stock = $77.24 / 1.24%⁵ = $26.35

Liono4ka [1.6K]
Which type of investment is most likely to have the greatest long-term increase in value? Stocks and bonds. Stocks and bonds when a company purchases a new asset is one of the best long-term investments you can invest in. Due to them being long-term investments, the asset needs time to accumulate more value for what it's worth before you sell it. Long-term investments value tends to rise overtime and not often would a short-term investment hold if kept to long.
