Answer:

$828.36

Explanation:

As for the information provided,

The value = $1,000

Life = 20 years, since interest is semi annual, effective period = 20 \times \frac{12}{6} = 40 periods.

Semi annual interest = $40

Annual interest = 10%, effective interest rate = 5%

Future Value Interest rate = $40 \times (\frac{1}{(1+0.05)^1} +\frac{1}{(1+0.05)^2} +\frac{1}{(1+0.05)^3} +\frac{1}{(1+0.05)^4} +\frac{1}{(1+0.05)^5} +\frac{1}{(1+0.05)^6} +\frac{1}{(1+0.05)^7} +.................. + \frac{1}{(1+0.05)^4^0} )

= $40 \times 17.159 = $686.36

Future Value of Principal = $1,000 \times \frac{1}{(1 + 0.05)^4^0}

= $1,000 \times 0.142 = $142

Thus, current price of bond = $686.36 + $142 = $828.36

Answer:

The price of the Stock today is $60.07. So option D is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The stock price of a company's stock whose dividends grow at two different growth rates can be calculated using the two stage Gordon growth model also known as the two stage DDM.

The short term growth rate or the growth rate that is for a limited time period is taken as g1. So, g1 is 15%

The sustainable growth rate which is the growth rate that will prevail forever is taken as g2. So, g2 is 10%

The price of the stock today is,

P0 = 1 * (1+0.15)  /  (1+0.12)   +   1 * (1+0.150^2  /  (1+0.12)^2   +  

[ (1 * (1+0.15)^2 * (1+0.1)  /  (0.12 - 0.1))  /  (1+0.12)^2 ]

P0 = $60.067 rounded off to $60.07
