Discount all FCFF's, sum them up, subtract the market value of debt, and then divide by the numbers of shares outstanding.

Returns on stocks A and B have equal standard deviations and are perfectly negatively correlated. In a two-stock portfolio with equal dollar investments in both stocks the portfolio standard deviation will be

Equal to Zero

The weakness of using replacement cost method is:

Estimating intagibles

External Cost of Equity with Floatation costs:

Get CAPM, then multiply by 1 + Floatation percentage

When Steve Jobs died, Stock of Apple fell. What kind of risk?

based on the market value of the firm's debt and equity securities.

What measures systematic risk

beta

debt financing (bonds)

NOT a name for market risk

idiosyncratic

When you find CAPM...

it IS the SML line!!! (CAPM = required rate of return)

if a firm's beta is 1 then..

it is the same as the market, so the expected return should be the same as the return on the market

Market risk premium is measured by

market return - risk free rate

A stock with a beta greater than 1.0 has returns that are ____________ volatile than the market, and a stock with a beta of less than 1.0 exhibits returns which are ____________ volatile than those of the market portfolio.

more, less
