Answer:

The value of the option to wait is $0.70,option A.

Explanation:

In calculating the value of the option to wait,I discounted all cash flows under both alternatives, using the discount rate of 12% as given in the question.

Option to start now gives net present value(positive return ) of $360.64 while the other one gives $361.34,invariably option to wait one year gives $0.70($361.34-$360.64) more than the option to start now.

The formula used in the calculating present value is PV=FV(1+r)^n

Where PV=present value

FV=future value

r=rate of interest

n=number of year

Find attached spreadsheet for detailed calculations.

Global Tek plans on increasing its annual dividend by 15 percent a year for the next four years and then decreasing the growth r
ad-work [718]

Answer:

A) $1.82

Explanation:

the dividends discount model is used to determine the value of stock given the distributed dividends and the required rate of return:

current dividend $0.20 per stock

dividends year 1 =  $0.23 per stock

dividends year 2 =  $0.2645 per stock

dividends year 3 =  $0.3042 per stock

dividends year 4 =  $0.35 per stock

after year 4, we need to calculate the growing perpetuity = dividend / (return rate - growth rate) = $0.35 / (17.4% - 2.5%) = $0.35 / 14.9% = $2.35

now we must find the present value of the cash flows:

PV = $0.23/1.174 + $0.2645/1.174² + $0.3042/1.174³ + $0.35/1.174⁴ + $2.35/1.174⁵ = $0.1959 + $0.1919 + $0.188 + $0.1842 + $1.0537 = $1.82
