- Given the dramatic decrease in a company's stock price last year, what would be the impact on the firm's asset beta, equity beta, and their WACC? Explain your responses!arrow_forwardCompanies often are under pressure to meet or beat Wall Street earnings projections in order to increase stock prices and also to increase the value of stock options. Some resort to earnings management practices to artificially create desired results. Required: 1. How can a company manage earnings by changing its depreciation method? Is this an effective technique to manage earnings? 2. How can a company manage earnings by changing the estimated useful lives of depreciable assets? Is this an effective technique to manage earnings? 3. Using a fictitious example and numbers you make up, describe in your own words how asset impairment losses could be used to manage earnings. How might that benefit the company?arrow_forwardAs companies evolve, certain factors can drive sudden growth. This may lead to a period of nonconstant, or variable, growth. This would cause the expected growth rate to increase or decrease, thereby affecting the valuation model. For companies in such situations, you would refer to the variable, or nonconstant, growth model for the valuation of the company’s stock. Consider the case of Portman Industries: Portman Industries just paid a dividend of $1.92 per share. The company expects the coming year to be very profitable, and its dividend is expected to grow by 12.00% over the next year. After the next year, though, Portman’s dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 2.40% per year.

- Investors expect a company to announce a 9 percent decrease in earnings, but instead the company announces a 1 percent decrease. If the market is semistrong-form efficient, which of the following should happen? a. The stock’s price rises because the earnings decrease was less than expected. b. The stock’s price stays the same because earnings announcements have no effect if the market is semistrong-form efficient. c. The stock’s price decreases slightly because the company had a slight decrease in earnings.arrow_forwardState whether the following statement is true or false and provide a written explanation of your answer. “The Dividend Growth Model (a.k.a Gordon Model) is a ridiculous model to use to value a share. Firstly, it assumes that the company will be around forever, whereas we know that lots of companies will eventually disappear because of takeovers and mergers and this model doesn’t allow for that. Secondly, it assumes that dividends grow at the rate of inflation which is not necessarily correct.”arrow_forwardAs companies evolve, certain factors can drive sudden growth.
