Chapter 9, Problem 9P
In 2006 and 2007, Kenneth Cole Productions (KCP) paid annual dividends of $0.72. In 2008, KCP paid an annual dividend of $0.36, and then paid no further dividends through 2012. KCP was acquired at the end of 2012 for $15.25 per share.
- a. What would an investor with perfect foresight of the above been willing to pay for KCP at the start of 2006? (Note: Because an investor with perfect foresight bears no risk, use a risk-free equity cost of capital of 5%.)
- b. Does your answer to (a) imply that the market for KCP stock was inefficient in 2006?

Consider the following two banks:
Bank 1 has assets composed solely of a 10-year, 11.50 percent coupon, $1.5 million loan with a 11.50 percent yield to maturity. It is
financed with a 10-year, 10 percent coupon, $1.5 million CD with a 10 percent yield to maturity.
Bank 2 has assets composed solely of a 7-year, 11.50 percent, zero-coupon bond with a current value of $1,108,283.85 and a maturity
value of $2,374,515.87. It is financed with a 10-year, 5.75 percent coupon, $1,500,000 face value CD with a yield to maturity of 10
percent.
All securities except the zero-coupon bond pay interest annually.
a. If interest rates rise by 1 percent (100 basis points), what is the difference in the value of the assets and liabilities of each bank?
