Question

Miltmar Corporation will pay a year-end dividend of $3, and dividends thereafter are expected to grow at the constant rate of 4% per year. The risk-free rate is 5%, and the expected return on the market portfolio is 14%. The stock has a beta of 0.82.

a. Calculate the market capitalization rate. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Market capitalization rate %

b. What is the intrinsic value of the stock? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Intrinsic value $

Explanation / Answer

Expected return on stock = Rf + [beta(rm -rf)]

                                      = 5+ [.82 (14 -5)]

                                      = 5 +[.82 * 9]

                                      = 5+ 7.38

                                      = 12.38%

b)Intrinsic value = D1 /(Rs -g)

                        = 3 /(.1238 - .04)

                        = 3 / .0838

                        =$ 35.80 per share
