1) Assume that the average firm in C&J Corporation's industry is expected to grow at a constant rate of 7% and that its dividend yield is 6%. C&J is about as risky as the average firm in the industry and just paid a dividend (D0) of $1.75. Analysts expect that the growth rate of dividends will be 50% during the first year (g0,1 = 50%) and 30% during the second year (g1,2 = 30%). After Year 2, dividend growth will be constant at 7%. What is the required rate of return on C&J's stock? What is the estimated intrinsic price per share? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the monetary value to the nearest cent and percentage value to the nearest whole number.
2)Simpkins Corporation does not pay any dividends because it is expanding rapidly and needs to retain all of its earnings. However, investors expect Simpkins to begin paying dividends, with the first dividend of $2.00 coming 3 years from today. The dividend should grow rapidly - at a rate of 75% per year - during Years 4 and 5. After Year 5, the company should grow at a constant rate of 5% per year. If the required return on the stock is 14%, what is the value of the stock today (assume the market is in equilibrium with the required return equal to the expected return)? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent.
