Answer :
Answer:
dividend one year D1 = $2.688
horizon value P1 = $36.9961
intrinsic value of portman stock P = $36.1290
dividend yield = 7.44 %
so correct option is b
Explanation:
given data
dividend = $2.40 per share
expected to grow = 12%
constant rate = 2.40%
risk free rate = 3.00%
market risk premium = 3.60%
pormans beta = 1.90
solution
we find first dividend one year from now is
dividend one year = D × (1+g) ..................1
here D is given dividend and g is expected to grow rate put here value we get
dividend one year = $2.40 × (1+12%)
dividend one year D1 = $2.688
and
now we find cost of equity that is
cost of equity Ke = Rf + β ×market risk premium ..............2
Rf is risk free rate and β is pormans beta put these value
cost of equity Ke = 3% + (1.9 × 3.6%)
cost of equity Ke = 0.0984 = 9.84 %
so
horizon value is here
horizon value = [tex]\frac{D1*(1+g)}{Ke-g}[/tex] ..................3
put here all value
horizon value = [tex]\frac{2.688*(1+0.0240)}{0.0984-0.0240}[/tex]
horizon value P1 = $36.9961
and
intrinsic value of portman stock is
P = [tex]\frac{D1}{(1+Ke)^1} +\frac{P1}{(1+Ke)^1}[/tex] ...................4
put here value
P = [tex]\frac{2.688}{(1+0.0984)^1} +\frac{36.9961}{(1+0.0984)^1}[/tex]
intrinsic value of portman stock P = $36.1290
and
dividend yield is here express as
dividend yield = [tex]\frac{D1}{P}[/tex] ......................5
put here value
dividend yield = [tex]\frac{2.688}{36.1290}[/tex]
dividend yield = 7.44 %
so correct option is b
