Stocks that don't pay dividends yet
Goodwin Technologies, a relatively young company, has been wildly successful but has yet to pay a dividend. An analyst forecasts that Goodwin is likely to pay its first dividend three years from now. She expects Goodwin to pay a $1.25000 dividend at that time (D₃ = $1.25000) and believes that the dividend will grow by 6.50000% for the following two years (D₄ and D₅). However, after the fifth year, she expects Goodwin’s dividend to grow at a constant rate of 3.36000% per year.
Goodwin’s required return is 11.20000%. Fill in the following chart to determine Goodwin’s horizon value at the horizon date (when constant growth begins) and the current intrinsic value. To increase the accuracy of your calculations, do not round your intermediate calculations, but round all final answers to two decimal places.…

- State 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_forwardFelton Publishing recently completed its IPO.

Assume that you think that Volkswagen (VW) stock is going to decline in price over the next few months because of continuing uncertainty about why the company cheated on its emissions testing. A share of VW stock is currently selling for $50. You arrange to borrow 100 shares of VW stock for three months for a price of $1 per share. Three months later, sure enough, VW stock is selling for only $40 per share. You then purchase 100 shares at $40 each and return the 100 shares of VW stock that you borrowed. How much money did you make or lose? Earned $900 O Lost $1,100 Lost $1,000 Earned $1,100 Earned $1,000.arrow_forward
- Which of the following are consistent with the efficient market hypothesis? Check all that apply. Changes in stock prices can be accurately predicted by investors. At the market price, the number of people who believe the stock is overvalued exactly equals the number of people who think the stock is undervalued. A positive news release about a company will increase the value and stock price for that firm. Some investors cite the existence of anomalies—observations that do not fit the model—as evidence that stock markets are not efficient. Which of the following are such anomalies? Check all that apply. The best time to sell a stock is late on Wednesday or Friday, whereas the best time to buy a stock is late on Tuesday or Thursday. The movement of stock prices of companies over time is the same as the changes in their earnings. High returns to a stock in one period are associated with even higher returns in a later period.

- According to the critics of stock price maximisation, “A practical problem with stock price as a performance measure is that it depends on a whole array of factors outside the company’s control.

Under these conditions, which of the following statements is most correct? a. The value of the stock can be found using DCF procedures by finding the present value of expected future dividends accounting for their timing and amount. b.Since it is expected to someday pay dividends, the value of the stock today can be found with this equation: P0 = D1/(r - g). c. Under these conditions, we can estimate a value for the stock, but we cannot use any form of the constant growth DCF model to do so. d. Such a stock should have a value of zero until it actually begins paying dividends.arrow_forward
