b.
To calculate: Stock’s required return.
b.
Explanation of Solution
Calculate required return.
Given,
Dividend per share is $0.75.
Stock selling per share is $12.50.
Growth rate is 0.12 or 12%.
Formula to calculate required return,
Substitute $0.75 for Dividend per share, $12.50 for Stock selling per share and 0.12 for Growth rate.
Stock’s required return is 18%.
c.
To calculate: The long run growth rate and the required return when annual pay of dividend is $1.50.
c.
Explanation of Solution
Calculate dividend payout ratio.
Given,
Dividend per share is $1.50.
Earnings per share are $2.25.
Formula to calculate dividend payout ratio,
Substitute $1.50 for dividend per share and $2.25 for earnings per share.
So, dividend payout ratio is 0.66.
Calculate growth rate.
Given,
Return on equity (ROE) is 18%.
Dividend payout ratio is 0.66.
Formula to calculate growth rate,
Substitute 18% for return on equity and 0.33 for dividend payout ratio.
So growth rate is 6%.
Calculate required return.
Given,
Dividend per share is $1.50.
Stock selling per share is $12.50.
Growth rate is 0.06 or 6%.
Formula to calculate required return
Substitute $1.50 for dividend per share, $12.50 for Stock selling per share and 0.06 for growth rate.
So, required return is 18%.
So, the long run growth rate is 6% while the required return is 18% at $1.50 dividend pay.
d.
To calculate: Stock dividend at firm’s current market capitalization.
d.
Explanation of Solution
Calculate amount of equity capital.
Given,
Total capital is $10,000,000.
Equity ratio is 0.06.
Formula to calculate amount of equity capital,
Substitute $10,000,000 for total capital and 0.06 for equity ratio.

Calculate amount of net income.
Given,
Equity capital is $6,000,000.
Return on equity is 0.18.
Formula to calculate amount of net income,
Substitute $6,000,000 for equity capital and 0.18 for return on equity.
So, amount of net income is $1,080,000.
Calculate number of shares.
Given,
Earnings per share are $2.25.
Net income is $1,080,000.
Formula to calculate number of shares,
Substitute $2.25 for earnings per share and $1,080,000 for net income.
So, number of shares is 480,000 and total dividend is $360,000
Calculate current market capitalization.
Given,
Net income is $6,000,000.
Dividend paid is $360,000.
Formula to calculate current market capitalization,
Substitute $6,000,000 for net income and $360,000 for dividend paid.
Current market capitalization is 6%.
e.
To calculate: New shares of stock issued and earnings of a company diluted per share.
e.
Explanation of Solution
Calculate number of new shares.
Given,
Dividend paid is $360,000.
Price per share is $12.50.
Formula to calculate number of new shares,
Substitute $360,000 for dividend paid and $12.50 for price per share.
So, number of new shares is 28,800.
Calculate new earnings per share.
Given,
Net income is $1,080,000.
Old number of shares outstanding is 480,000.
New shares outstanding are 28,800.
Formula to calculate new earnings per share,
Substitute $1,080,000 for net income, 480,000 for old shares outstanding and 28,800 for new shares outstanding.
So, new EPS is $2.1266.
Calculate dilution of EPS.
Given,
Old EPS is $2.25.
New EPS is $2.1266.
Formula to calculate dilution of EPS,
Substitute $2.25 for old EPS and $2.1266 for new EPS.
