Answer:

Beta  = 0.62

Explanation:

<em>The capital pricing model establishes the relationship between expected return from a stock and its systematic  risk . The systematic risk is that which affects all players (businesses and firms) in the entire market, such risks are occassioned by changes in interest rate, exchange rate e.t.c</em>

<em>According to the model , the expected return is computed as follows</em>

E(r)   = Rf  + β(Rm-Rf)

Rf- risk -free rate, Rm-Rf - market premium

  E(r)     = 12.2%,  Rm-Rf  = 10,  β- ?

12.2 = 6%  + β× 10

10β = 12.2 -6

β=  (12.2-6)/10

     = 0.62

taurus [48]

Answer:

Growth rate 2.4%

Explanation:

MV=D1/(Ke-g)

Where MV=share market value=$15

D1=Dividend at year end=$.72

Ke=stock's expected rate of return=7.2%

By putting above values in formula, we get;

MV=D1/(Ke-g)

15=.72/(7.2%-g)

15*7.2%-15g=.72

1.08-15g=.72

.72-1.08=-15g

g= -.36/-15

g=2.4%

b) In an income statement vertical analysis, each line item is calculated as a percentage of the sales, which is itself 100%.  This enables the proportional analysis of all the items to be computed about their financial performance in relation to the sales for the period.  It can help management to dictate unusual items, errors, and other outliers.

c) The balance sheet trend analysis shows whether the entity's financial position is improving or not in relation to the base period.  Each item is compared horizontally across periods.  The calculation of trend uses the amount in the non-base year and divides it by the amount of the base year x 100.
