$20 required rate of return = RF + RP x beta required rate of return = 4.00 + 5.50 x 1.50 required rate of return = 12.25% price of stock = D1 / (re-g) price of stock = 1.25/12.25-6 price of stock = $20

The Francis Company is expected to pay a dividend of D 1 = $1.25 per share at the end of the year, and that dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 6.00% per year in the future. The company's beta is 1.50, the market risk premium is 5.50%, and the risk-free rate is 4.00%. What is the company's current stock price? Do not round intermediate calculations.

$40.67 year 1 = 1.75(1.22) = $2.135 year 2 = 2.135(1.22) = $2.6047

The Ramirez Company's last dividend was $1.75. Its dividend growth rate is expected to be constant at 22% for 2 years, after which dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 6% forever. Its required return (r s) is 12%. What is the best estimate of the current stock price? Do not round intermediate calculations.

False

The corporate valuation model cannot be used unless a company pays dividends.

True

A proxy is a document giving one party the authority to act for another party, including the power to vote shares of common stock. Proxies can be important tools relating to control of firms.

$125 million value of equity = total MV - Long term debt - short term debt

Based on the corporate valuation model, Wang Inc.'s total corporate value is $425 million. Its balance sheet shows $100 million notes payable, $200 million of long-term debt, $40 million of common stock (par plus paid-in-capital), and $160 million of retained earnings. What is the best estimate for the firm's value of equity (in millions)?

True

From an investor's perspective, a firm's preferred stock is generally considered to be less risky than its common stock but more risky than its bonds. However, from a corporate issuer's standpoint, these risk relationships are reversed: bonds are the most risky for the firm, preferred is next, and common is least risky.

$33.50 year 1 = 1.25(1.15) = 1.4375 year 2 = 1.4375(1.15) = 1.635125 year 3 = 1.635125(1.15) = 1.901094 D4 = 1.25(1.15)^3 (1.06) Terminal value = D4/required growth rate terminal value = 40.3032

Huang Company's last dividend was $1.25. The dividend growth rate is expected to be constant at 15.0% for 3 years, after which dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 6% forever. If the firm's required return (r s) is 11%, what is its current stock price? Do not round intermediate calculations.

False

If a firm's stockholders are given the preemptive right, then they can call for a meeting to vote to replace the management. Without the preemptive right, dissident stockholders must seek a change in management through a proxy fight.

$2,940 total corporate value = FCF for next year / (WACC - growth rate) (210 x 1.05) / (12.5% - 5%) 220.5/7.5%

Mooradian Corporation's free cash flow during the just-ended year (t = 0) was $210 million, and its FCF is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5.0% in the future. Assume the firm has zero non-operating assets. If the weighted average cost of capital is 12.5%, what is the firm's total corporate value, in millions?

ABPrice $25 $25 Expected growth (constant) 10% 5% Required return 15% 15% a. Since Stock A's growth rate is twice that of Stock B, Stock A's future dividends will always be twice as high as Stock B's. b. The two stocks should not sell at the same price. If their prices are equal, then a disequilibrium must exist. c. Stock A has a higher dividend yield than Stock B. d. Currently the two stocks have the same price, but over time Stock B's price will pass that of A. e. Stock A's expected dividend at t = 1 is only half that of Stock B.​

Stock A must have a higher dividend yield than Stock B. d. Stock A must have both a higher dividend yield and a higher capital gains yield than Stock B. e.

True

The cash flows associated with common stock are more difficult to estimate than those related to bonds because stock has a residual claim against the company versus a contractual obligation for a bond.

Preferred stock is normally expected to provide steadier, more reliable income to investors than the same firm's common stock. As a result, the expected after-tax yield on the preferred is lower than the after-tax expected return on the common stock.

As a result, the expected after-tax yield on the preferred is lower than the after-tax expected return on the common stock. c. A major disadvantage of financing with preferred stock is that preferred stockholders typically have supernormal voting rights. d. One of the advantages to financing with preferred stock is that 50% of the dividends paid out are tax deductible to the issuer. e. One of the disadvantages to a corporation of owning preferred stock is that 50% of the dividends received represent taxable income to the corporate recipient, whereas interest income earned on bonds is tax free.

The preemptive right is a provision in the corporate charter that gives common stockholders the right to purchase (on a pro rata basis) new issues of the firm's common stock.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The stock valuation model, P0 = D1/(rs - g), can be used only for firms whose growth rates exceed their required returns. b.

$26.67 value of firm = FCF year 1 / (WACC - growth rate) value of firm = 50.0 / (10% - 5%) value of firm = 1,000.00 million value of equity = 1,000.00 million - 200 million value of equity = 800 million intrinsic value per share = 800 million / 30 million intrinsic value per share = $26.67
