The bid-ask spread is the difference between the bid price and the ask price, so: Bid-ask spread = 129.7813 - 129.7188Bid-ask spread = .0625 In dollars, the bid-ask spread is: Bid-ask spread = (.0625/100)($10,000)Bid-ask spread = $6.25

Red, Inc., Yellow Corp., and Blue Company each will pay a dividend of $1.70 next year. The growth rate in dividends for all three companies is 7 percent. The required return for each company's stock is 9.30 percent, 11.30 percent, and 14.70 percent, respectively.

We can use the constant dividend growth model, which is: Pt = Dt × (1 + g) / (R - g) So the price of each company's stock today is: Red stock price = $1.70 / (.093 - .07) = $73.91 Yellow stock price = $1.70 / (.113 - .07) = $39.53 Blue stock price = $1.70 / (.147 - .07) = $22.08
