Question

Miltmar Corporation will pay a year-end dividend of $4, and dividends thereafter are expected to grow at the constant rate of 5% per year. The risk-free rate is 6%, and the expected return on the market portfolio is 12%. The stock has a beta of 0.92.

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

a.

Market capitalisation rate = Rf + Beta(market return - Rf)

= 0.06 + 0.92 (0.12-0.06)

= 6.55%

b.

Intrinsic value of stock = Next year dividend/(ke-growth)

= $4 * 1.05/(0.0655 - 0.06)

= $763.64
