Answer:
A. $22.61
Explanation:
First,
find the growth rate(g);
g = ROE *retention rate
retention rate = 35%
ROE = Net income/value of equity
ROE = 800,000/5,000,000 = 0.16
Therefore, g = 0.16*0.35
g =0.056 or 5.6%
Price = 
D0 = Recently paid dividend
g = growth rate
r = required return
Price = 
Therefore, the value of this stock is $22.61
Answer:
Ans. rate of return= 7.37%
Explanation:
The easiest way to find this discount rate is to set a MS Excel sheet and use the function "Find Goal". In the attachments, there is a spreadsheet that I got ready for you. There are 2 cells in color, one is yellow and the other one is green. You just go ahead and replace the value of the green cell with any percentage that you want, for example, 2%, then use the function "find goal" and set the objective cell to be the yellow cell (B5), changing the cell in green (B7), and hit enter.
Best of luck.
Answer:
Assume the weight to be invested in Bay Corp is x. That means (1 - x) will be the weight for City Inc. The expression for the expected return will be;
(x * 11.2%) + ( (1 - x) * 14.8%) = 12.4%
0.112x + 0.148 - 0.148x = 0.124
-0.036x = -0.024
x = 0.67
Portfolio beta is;
= 0.67 * 1.2 + ( 1 - 0.67) * 1.8
= 1.398 so beta condition is satisfied.
Amount in Bay Corp.;
= 0.67 * 50,000
= $33,500
Amount in City Inc.;
= 50,000 - 33,500
= $16,500
The sales goals. That's it
