- Earley Corporation's perpetual preferred stock annual dividend is 12% and its par value is $100.

Annual dividend: Par Value * Dividend rate = $ 100 * 12% = $ 12

Stock's currently yields 10% (given)

We know that;

Stock yeild = Annual dividend / Stock value

hence, Stock Value = Annual dividend / stock yeild = $ 12/0.10 = $120

If the interest rates rises to 13 % ; then

Stock Value = Annual dividend / stock yeild = $ 12/0.13 = $92.30
