Calculate each company's future earnings growth rate. Using the earnings model, what is the value of the stock? Calculate the value without growth and PVGO separately. Firm A EPS $0.80 Payout Ratio 30% Required Rate of Return 12% ROE 16% Firm B EPS $1.15 Payout Ratio 50% Required Rate of Return 11% ROE 15% Firm C EPS $1.47 Payout Ratio 60% Required Rate of Return 12% ROE 14% Firm D EPS $1.85 Payout Ratio 40% Required Rate of Return 14% ROE 16.00% Focus especially on calculating the value of growth opportunities.

Step 1
2% For Firm B: SGR = 15% * (1 - 50%) = 7.5% For Firm C: SGR = 14% * (1 - 60%) = 5.6% For Firm D: SGR = 16% * (1 - 40%) = 9.6% Show more…

The forecasted earnings and dividends for Growth-Tech are as follows: Year: 1 2 3 4 Book equity: 10.00 12.00 14.40 15.55 Earnings per share (EPS): 2.50 3.00 2.30 2.48 Return on equity (ROE): 0.25 0.25 0.16 0.16 Payout ratio: 0.20 0.20 0.50 0.50 Dividends per share (DIV): 0.50 0.60 1.15 1.24 Growth rate of dividends (%): --- 20 92 8 The opportunity cost of capital is r = 0.12. The growth rate in year 4 remains constant thereafter. a) Calculate the value of Growth-Tech stock. b) What part of the stock value reflects the discounted value of P3, the price forecasted for year 3? c) What part of P3 reflects the present value of growth opportunities (PVGO) after year 3?

Two-stage DCF model: Company Q's current return on equity (ROE) is 14%. It pays out one-half of earnings as cash dividends (payout ratio 0.5). The current book value per share is $50. The book value per share will grow as Q reinvests earnings. Assume that the ROE and payout ratio stay constant for the next four years. After that, competition forces ROE down to 11.5% and the payout ratio increases to 0.8. The cost of capital is 11.5%. What are Q's EPS and dividends next year? How will EPS and dividends grow in years 2, 3, 4, 5, and subsequent years? What is Q's stock worth per share? How does that value depend on the payout ratio and growth rate after year 4? QUESTION - How is the dividend at year 5 = $4.69331? Shouldn't it be (EPS at year 5 multiplied by the payout ratio? $9.38866 * 0.8 = $7.51093)

Consider two stocks. For each, the expected dividend next year is $100 and the expected growth rate of dividends is 3%. The risk premium is 3% for one stock and 8% for the other. The economy's safe interest rate is 5%. a. What does the difference in risk premiums tell us about the dividends from each stock? b. Use the Gordon growth model to compute the price of each stock. Why is one price higher than the other? c. Suppose the expected growth rate of dividends rises to 5% for both stocks. Compute the new price of each. Which stock's price changes by a larger percentage? Explain your result.
