- Question 4 The president of Phoenix wonders what accounts for Denver’s current (2010) higher stock price, although Phoenix currently earns more per share than Denver and frequently has paid a higher dividend. a) What factors can you observe that might help to explain this phenomenon? b) Explain every possible dividend policies you know and suggest the one you think is the best dividend policy for both Phoenix and Denver that might lead to increases in both of their share prices.

There is a large block of stock available at $35 a share. For the sake of this exercise let us disregard tax implications and effects. If the firm decides to spend this amount of excess cash on a share repurchase program, how many shares will be repurchased?? What are the benefits of repurchasing shares? How will this affect the capital structure of the company? How can this be interpreted in the marketplace? Suppose the market price of the shares is $35.75 a share. Why do you think the seller of the large block would agree to see at $35 a share? Suppose the assumptions of MM are true, then what would happen to the market price of shares once the purchase of the large block at $35 a share is completed? Would it rise above $35.75, remain unchanged or fall? Would a dividend be better? Please discuss the pros and cons of dividends and share buybacks. Make a…arrow_forward10. Corporate valuation model The corporate valuation model, the price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple approach, and the economic value added (EVA) approach are some examples of valuation techniques. The corporate valuation model is similar to the dividend-based valuation that you’ve done in previous problems, but it focuses on a firm’s free cash flows (FCFs) instead of its dividends. Some firms don’t pay dividends, or their dividends are difficult to forecast. For that reason, some analysts use the corporate valuation model. Blur Corp. has an expected net operating profit after taxes, EBIT(1 – T), of $7,600 million in the coming year. In addition, the firm is expected to have net capital expenditures of $1,140 million, and net operating working capital (NOWC) is expected to increase by $10 million. How much free cash flow (FCF) is Blur Corp. expected to generate over the next year? $8,730 million $6,450 million $118,668 million $6,470 million…arrow_forward

- 4. Dividend policy A firm’s value depends on its expected free cash flow and its cost of capital. Distributions made in the form of dividends or stock repurchases impact the firm’s value and the investors in different ways. Consider the case of Purple Sage Producers Inc., and answer the question that follows: Purple Sage Producers Inc. is an oil drilling company and has some free cash flow that is not expected to be used to finance future growth or potential investment projects. The company plans to distribute its free cash flow to its shareholders but is still deciding whether the distribution should take the form of a stock repurchase or the payment of a cash dividend.
