Q#1:
Value of preferred stock= D/r
Where D= dividend ($1.00) and r- rate of return (5%)
Plugging the inputs, value of preferred stock= 1/0.05= $20
Q#2:
Current price is ascertained as the present value of future dividend income. This comprise of first stage growth for 3 Years at20 % and at 5% infinitely thereafter. Price at the end of first stage = D(n+1)/(r-g2) where D(n+1) is the dividend in 1st year of second stage, g2= growth rate in that stage and r= required rate of return. This is further discounted to arrive at current price by adding the present value of dividend stream in first stage.
Current price= $30.84.
Calculation as follows:
Q#3:
Given, net profit margin of 5.00%
Annual sales = $1,000,000
Number of shares= 50,000
Firm's P/E ratio is 10.0X
EPS= Sales*NP margin/Number of shares= 1000000*5%/50000 = $1
Price= PE Ratio*EPS= 10*$1 = $10
Q#4:
Monthly payments= $171.85
Calculation as follows:
