Answer:
$96.20
Step-by-step explanation:
A share of stock is now selling for $90. It will pay a dividend of $10 per share at the end of the year. Its beta is 1. What do investors expect the stock to sell for at the end of the year? Assume the risk-free rate is 4% and the expected rate of return on the market is 18%
Find complete question above:
The cost of equity=risk-free rate+beta*(market return-risk-free rate)
cost of equity=4%+1*(18%-4%)=18.00%
The price of the stock today is the present value of the price in a year's time and the expected dividend.
Share price today=(dividend+future share price)/(1+r)^n
share price today=$90
dividend=$10
future share price is the unknown
r=18%
n=1( 1 year from now)
90=(10+FP)/(1+18%)^1
90=(10+FP)/1.18
90*1.18=10+FP
FVP=(90*1.18)-10=$96.20
