A company currently has earnings (Eo) of $5.00 and a dividend (Do) of $0.50. The firm's current return on equity (ROE) is 40%. The firm will maintain the same dividend payout and ROE over the next two periods. Then it will transition in a linear reduction in years 3, 4, and 5 to a growth of 3%. The firm will then grow at 3% to perpetuity. The firm's beta is presently 1.4, but this will transition to 1 over the same period. The risk-free rate is 4% and the market risk premium is 6%. ROE is expected to be 10% beginning in year 5 to perpetuity. What is the present value of this firm's equity using a three-stage model with linear transition in years 3, 4, and 5? $114.77 $102.19 $119.46 $94.59

A firm's current stock price is $42. You expect the firm to pay $1.25 worth of dividends next year and for dividend payments to continue growing at 3.25% a year forever. Earnings growth is exected to be 4% per year and the firm currently borrows at 6.5%. Find the firm's cost of equity? Then, create a data table to show the cost of equity changes as the growth rate in dividends increases.
You are interested in determining the intrinsic value of Hoffman Inc. Your analysis shows that the firm’s growth rate will drop from its current pace by 20% each of the next two years, and then you estimate that dividends will continue to grow at the year 2 rate, with the same dividend policy in place, indefinitely. Lastly, your estimate of the required return on the firm’s equity is 12%. Hoffman’s recently published annual report shows the following financial relationships: Assets = 1.4 x Equity Current Assets = 1.7 x Current Liabilities Sales = 1.5 x Assets Net Income = 8% x Sales Dividends = 30% x Net Income Earnings per share (Basic) = $0.80 per share Required: Use the multi-period DDM to estimate the intrinsic value of the company’s stock now, at the beginning of year 1.

Suppose a firm is expected to increase dividends by 20% in one year and decrease by 12% in two years and then increase by 15% in three years. After that dividends will increase at a rate of 5% per year indefinitely. The last dividend was $1.55 and the required return is 13%. a) Compute the dividends until growth levels off. Ans: D1 = ? D2 = ? D3 = ? D4 = ? b) Find the expected future price at the beginning of the constant growth period: Ans: P3 = ? c) Find the present value of the expected future cash flows Ans: P0 = ?
