Question

Please help me thank you soo much :)

The market consensus is that Analog Electronic Corporation has an ROE-996, has a beta of 1.30, and plans to maintain indefinitely its traditional plowback ratio of 1/3. This year's earnings were $2.90 per share The annual dividend was just paid. The consensus estimate of the coming year's market return is 11%, and T-bills currently offer a 5% return. a. Find the price at which Analog stock should sell. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. Omit the "$" sign in your response.) Price b. Calculate the P/E ratio. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) P/E Ratio Leading Trailing c. Calculate the present value of growth opportunities. (Negative amount should be indicated by a your answer to 2 decimal places. Omit the "S" sign in your response.) NGC)

Explanation / Answer

Ks = Rf + [(Rm) – Rf ]

     = .05 + 1.3 (.11 – .05)

     = 12.8%


g = ROE x plowback ratio

   = 9% x 1/3 = 3%

D1 = E0 (1 + g) (1 – plowback ratio)

     = 2.9 (1 + .03) (1 – 1/3)

     = $1.991

P0 = D1 / (Ks – g)

     = 1.991 / (0.128– 0.03)

     = $20.31

2

             g = ROE (1 – D1 / EPS1)

0.03 = .09 (1 – 1.991 / EPS1)

0.03 = 0.09-(0.09*1.991/ EPS1)

0.03-0.09 = - 0.17919/ EPS1

EPS1= 0.17919/0.06

         = $2.9865

Leading P0/E1 = 20.31 / 2.9865

                         = 6.80


Trailing P0/E0 = 20.31 / 2.9

                        = 7.0034

3

PV of growth opportunities = P0 – E1 / Ks

                                            = 20.31 – 2.9865 / .128

                                            = –$3.022
