Chapter 7, Problem 16PROB
Summary Introduction

The company SJexpects to pay $0.60, $0.90, $2.40 and $3.50 for the next four years post which it will increase the dividend by 4% indefinitely. Required rate of return on the stock is 20%.

Non-Constant Dividend Growth Model

Non-constant growth model assumes that the company pay dividends based on its growth stage. According to the model, different amounts of dividends are paid in the initial years and then at some point of time they enter a phase with constant dividend growth model. Therefore, for the period in which the dividends paid are varying, present value of each period is calculated. Constant growth model is applied when the dividends start growing at a constant rate later.

Stock price for non-constant growth model can be computed as follows:

Step 1

Find dividends for the non-constant growth period and discount them to the present value

Step 2

Compute the dividend at the start of the constant growth period and then using constant growth model, calculate the horizontal value of the stock at the end of the non-constant growth period.

Step 3

Find the present value of this horizontal stock price

Step 4

Add the present value of all the dividends and this horizontal price, to determine the current stock value

An insurance company has liabilities of £7 million due in 10 years' time and £9 million due in 17 years' time. The assets of the company consist of two zero-coupon bonds, one paying £X million in 7 years' time and the other paying £Y million in 20 years' time. The current interest rate is 6% per annum effective. Find the nominal value of X (i.e. the amount, IN MILLIONS, that bond X pays in 7 year's time) such that the first two conditions for Redington's theory of immunisation are satisfied. Express your answer to THREE DECIMAL PLACES.
An individual is investing in a market where spot rates and forward rates apply. In this market, if at time t=0 he agrees to invest £5.3 for two years, he will receive £7.4 at time t=2 years. Alternatively, if at time t=0 he agrees to invest £5.3 at time t=1 for either one year or two years, he will receive £7.5 or £7.3 at times t=2 and t=3, respectively. Calculate the price per £5,000 nominal that the individual should pay for a fixed-interest bond bearing annual interest of 6.6% and is redeemable after 3 years at 110%. State your answer at 2 decimal places.
The one-year forward rates of interest, f+, are given by: . fo = 5.06%, f₁ = 6.38%, and f2 = 5.73%. Calculate, to 4 decimal places (in percentages), the three-year par yield.
