Answer:
the intrinsic value of the stock is 42.97
If the stock is priced at 40 dollars it would be a good idea to purchase the share as will provide a better yield than the cost of capital of 9.6%
Explanation:
First, we solve for the cost of equity using the CAPM:
risk free = 0.03
market rate = 0.09
premium market = (market rate - risk free) = 0.055
beta(non diversifiable risk) = 1.2
Ke = 0.09600
<em>Now we solve for the intrinsic price using the gordon model</em>
<em>with multi-stage growth:</em>
First, we calcualte the future dividends
grow rate Dividends
0 1.25
1 0.25 1.5625
2 0.25 1.953125
3 0.25 2.44140625
4 0.25 3.051757813
4 0.03 3.143310547
Now in the last year, we calcualte using the gordon model or constant grow:
32.7128182
Now we calculate and add together the present value of each of this future cash flow to determnate the intrinsic value ofthe share:
Present Value
1 1.5625 / (1+0.096)^1 = 1.425638686
2 1.953125 / (1+0.096)^2 = 1.625956531
and so on, giving the following values:
3 1.854421226
4 2.114987712
present value of the future dividends at 3% 22.67126448
<u>Finally we add them and get:</u>
42.97160726
Answer:
d. 5.08%
Explanation:
We have to first calculate the YTM of the bond, and then apply the tax shield.
To get the YTM we have to calculate the rate of return of an annuity of 46.25 for 20 years compounding semiannually at IRR rate and the present value of the face value redeem in 20 years.
IRR = 0.084656891 (it should be done using financial calculator or excel or a similar software program)
then we apply the shield tax to the IRR:
IRR x (1 - tax-rate) = Cost of debt
0.084656891 * ( 1 - 0.4) = 5.0794= 5.08
