Summary Introduction

ASR recently paid a dividend of $3 which is expected to grow continuously at a rate of 4% in perpetuity. The appropriate rate of return on the stock is 10%.

Gordon constant growth model is used to determine the value of a stock. The model assumes that the dividend paid by the company would continue to grow at a constant rate in the foreseeable future. The present value of all these dividends paid till perpetuity is the market or present value of the stock. The model also assumes that the required rate of return of the stock should always be greater than the growth rate, otherwise, the value would become negative and meaningless.

Value of the stock when the dividends are growing at a constant rate is

P0=D1rsg=D0(1+g)rsgwhere,D1=dividend paid next yearD0=dividend paid this yearrs=required rate of returng=growth rate of dividend in perpetuity

Skip Stephens is trying to decide whether it would be wise to consolidate his debt by borrowing funds from Syndicated Lending, a firm that he doesn’t know much about. Syndicated is an Internet lender that doesn’t post much information about the costs of the loans it offers. Some of the additional information Skip has gathered from various sources suggests the Syndicated might use such unethical practices as “bait and switch” to attract customers. Discussion questions: Is there an ethical problem? If so, what is it? What are the implications if Skip borrows from Syndicated? Should Skip borrow from Syndicated?
