Assume an interest rate of 5% and the future firm’s profit growth rate of 3%. Given that current profits are $150 million, then
What's the value of the firm?
What's the value of the firm after paying dividends equal to its current profits?
Please show calculations.
1)
What's the value of the firm
=(current profit*(1+g))/(r-g)
=(150*(1+3%))/(5%-3%)
=7725 million
2)
when a firm pays dividend=current profits, that means plowback ratio is 0% which means growth rate will be=0%
What's the value of the firm after paying dividends equal to its current profits
=(current profit*(1+g))/(r-g)
=(150*(1+0%))/(5%-0%)
=3000 million
the above is answer..

A firm’s profit margin is 24%, and its asset turnover ratio is .5. It has no debt, has net income of $15 per share, and pays dividends of $6 per share. What is the sustainable growth rate? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 1 decimal place.)
The dividend-growth model suggests that an increase in the dividend growth rate will increase the value of a stock. However, an increase in the growth rate may require an increase in retained earnings and a reduction in the current dividend. Thus, management may be faced with a dilemma: current dividends versus future growth. As of now, investors’ required return is 13 percent. The current dividend is $1 per share and is expected to grow annually by 7 percent. (EXPLAIN/Show in...

Use the variable-growth model to predict the intrinsic value of the Rhyhorn Company common stock. Assume that dividends will grow at a variable rate for the next three years (2019, 2020, and 2021). After that, the annual rate of growth in dividends is expected to be 7% and stay there for the foreseeable future. Starting with the latest (2018) annual dividend of $2.01 per share, Rhyhorn's earnings and dividends are estimated to grow by 17% in 2019, by 13% in...
