Based on the following information calculate the expected return and standard deviation for the two stocks: State of economy Probability of state of economy Rate of return if state occur Stock A Stock B -.17 .12 .29 Recession Normal Boom 3. How should the price of a stock change when it goes ex-dividend? 4. Suppose stock in Gamma Air Freight has a beta of 1.25. the market risk premium is 7% and the risk free rate is 6%. Alpha's last dividend was $2 per share and the dividend is expected to grow at 8% indefinitely. The stock currently sells for $30. What is Gamma's cost of equity capital? .05 .65 .30 .05 .08 .13
1. You estimate the Fama-French 3-factor model for the two stocks, A and B, and find the following coefficients. You also estimate risk premiums for each factor. Calculate the cost of equity capital (i.e., expected rate of return) for each company using the 3-factor APT model. The risk-free rate is 4%. Stock Mkt A B Risk premiums 1.1 1.0 5% SMB -1.2 -2.0 HML -1.0 -1.5 3%
