The company had less debt and operation leverage compare to industry, as a result , RIO has a beta of 1.8 versus the industry average of 2. Based on these information, should the company RIO have a higher or lower PE ratio than the industry average ? Given a risk free rate of 2% and market risk premium of 8%, what is RIO’s “intrinsic” forward PE ratio based on formula?If the value of sustainable investing is $158.7 and the discount rate is 5.8% while the value of non-sustainable investing is $22.81 and the expected value of the company is $27.14. What is the assumed probability of being sustainable given a 5 year horizon? (Answer in percent to 2 decimals)Which of these two companies is best for investment?

- Suppose Firm 1 is 100% equity financed. Firm 1 has a project available that offers a 10% return on average and has the same systematic risk as Firm 1. Assume that the risk-free rate is 2%, the stock market return premium (Rm - Rf) is 7%, the CAPM beta is 1.3, and estimate the future required return for Firm 1 (when estimating the required return for Firm 1 going forward, assume an alpha of zero). All returns are on an annual basis. Should Firm 1 do its project?A company projects a rate of return of 20% on new projects. Management plans to plow back 20% of all earnings into the firm. Earnings this year will be $6 per share, and investors expect a rate of return of 12% on stocks facing the same risks as this company. What is the sustainable growth rate? What is the stock price? What is the present value of growth opportunities (PVGO)? What is the P/E ratio? What would the price and P/E ratio be if the firm paid out all earnings as dividends? Please show workings with formulas.A financial manager believes that her firm will earn a 15% return next year. This firm has a beta of 1.8, and the expected return on the market is 8% while the risk-free rate is 2%. First, compute the return this firm should earn given its level of risk. Second, determine whether this firm’s stock is overvalued or undervalued given what the manager thinks this company will earn next year.

What is Corrigan’s standard deviation of returns?Investment advisors estimated the stock market returns for four market segments: computers, financial, manufacturing, and pharmaceuticals. Annual return projections vary depending on whether the general economic conditions are improving, stable, or declining. The anticipated annual return percentages for each market segment under each economic condition are as follows: Assume that an individual investor wants to select one market segment for a new investment. A forecast shows improving to declining economic conditions with the following probabilities: improving (0.2), stable (0.5), and declining (0.3). What is the preferred market segment for the investor, and what is the expected return percentage? At a later date, a revised forecast shows a potential for an improvement in economic conditions. New probabilities are as follows: improving (0.4), stable (0.4), and declining (0.2). What is the preferred market segment for the investor based on these new probabilities? What is the expected return percentage?
