Answer: calculated by dividing total liabilities by net worth.
Explanation:
The debt to equity ratio is used to know how credit worthy a company is. This is gotten by dividing the total liability of a company by the equity of the shareholder.
It should be noted that the debt t equity ratio isn't gotten dividing your assets by liabilities. Therefore, based on the information given above, the answer is A.
Using the Gordon Growth Model (a.k.a. Dividend Discount Model), the intrinsic value of a stock can be calculated, exclusive of current market conditions. In this model, the value of the stock is equated to the present value of the stock's future dividends.
<span>Value of stock (P0) = D1 / (k - g)
</span>where
D1<span> = </span><span>expected annual </span>dividend<span> per share in the following year </span>
<span>k = the investor's discount rate or required </span>rate of return
g = the expected dividend growth rate
<u>From the problem:</u>
The value of stock is $10.80
D1 is $0.40
g is 0.08
k is unknown
Solution:
Rearranging the equation for Gordon Growth Model to solve for k:
k = (D1/P0) + g
Substituting the variables with the given values,
k = (0.40/10.80) + 0.08
k = 0.1170
In percent form, this is
0.1170 * 100% = 11.70%.
Thus, the total rate of return on the stock is 11.70%.
Answer:
Existing Equity = 20 million
Existing debt = 60 million
Total capital = 20 million + 60 million = 80 million
a. Given company issued 30 million of equity to retire debt
Equity after raise = $20 million + $30 million = $50 million
Debt = $60 million - $30 million = $30 million
Total capital size remain at $80 million
Capital structure, Equity = $50 million/$80 million = 0.625 = 62.50%
Debt = (1-0.625) = 0.375 = 37.50%
b. The market would welcome the new issue as the risk of the firm would be reduced.
