hammer [34]

The question is incomplete. The complete Question is,

Brushy Mountain Mining Company's coal reserves are being depleted, so its sales are falling. Also, environmental costs increase each year, so its costs are rising. As a result, the company's earnings and dividends are declining at the constant rate of 4% per year. If D0 = $2 and rs = 17%, what is the estimated value of Brushy Mountain's stock?

Answer:

P0 = $9.1428 rounded off to 9.14

This answer is for the question above. Change the values and use the same formula if the values differ

Explanation:

The constant growth model of dividend discount model (DDM) can be used to calculate the price of the stock today. DDM calculates the price of a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under constant growth DDM is,

P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)

Where,

D0 * (1+g) is the dividend expected in Year 1 or next year

g is the constant growth rate in dividends

r is the discount rate or required rate of return

P0 = 2 * (1-0.04)  /  (0.17 + 0.04)

P0 = $9.1428 rounded off to 9.14

den301095 [7]

COMPLETE PROBLEM

Lana, a ten-year-old child, is run over by a car negligently driven by Mitchell. Lana, at the time of the accident, was acting reasonably and without negligence. Clark, a newspaper reporter, photographs Lana while she is lying in the street in great pain. Two years later, Perry, the publisher of a newspaper, prints Clark's picture of Lana in his newspaper as a lead to an article concerning the negligence of children. The caption under the picture reads: "They ask to be killed." Lana, who has recovered from the accident, brings suit against Clark and Perry. What result? Explain.

Explanation:

Judgement for Lana against Perry but not against Clark. The facts make out a case against Perry for the tort of invasion of privacy in particular placing another in a false light (INVASION OF PRIVACY:FALSE LIGHT). Section 652E of the restatement imposes liability for publicity which places another in a false light. It is unlikely that Perry could utilize the first amendment as a defense because Lana was neither a public official nor a public figure. Even if that defense were available, it is forfeited if Perry acted with "malice", which appears to be the case here because Perry acted in reckless disregard of the truth. Clark did not commit the tort of intrusion because he photographed an event that occurred in public.
