Prompt
After reading the module resources, address the following questions:
Turbo Technology Computers is experiencing a period of rapid growth. Earnings and dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 15% during the next two years, at 13% in the third year, and at a constant rate of 6% thereafter. Turbo's last dividend was $1.15, and the required rate of return on the stock is 12%.
Complete the following calculations:
Calculate the value of the stock today.
Calculate P1^ and P2^.
Calculate the dividend yield and capital gains yield for Years 1, 2, and 3.
Kassidy's Kabob House has preferred stock outstanding that pays a dividend of $5 at the end of each year. The preferred sells for $50 a share. What is the stock's required rate of return? Assume the market is in equilibrium with the required return equal to the expected return.
McCaffrey's Inc. has never paid a dividend, and when the firm might begin paying dividends is not known. Its current free cash flow (FCF) is $100,000, and this FCF is expected to grow at a constant 7% rate. The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is 11%. McCaffrey's currently holds $325,000 of non-operating marketable securities. Its long-term debt is $1,000,000, but it has never issued preferred stock. McCaffrey's has 50,000 shares of stock outstanding.
Calculate the following:
McCaffrey's value of operations
The company's total value
The estimated value of common equity
The estimated per-share stock price
To answer your questions, we will perform a series of calculations based on the provided data for Turbo Technology Computers, Kassidy's Kabob House, and McCaffrey's Inc.
Part 1: Turbo Technology Computers
Step 1: Calculate the value of the stock today (P0)
The stock price today (P0) can be calculated using the dividend discount model (DDM) for varying growth rates. The formula for the price of a stock with multiple growth phases is:
$ P_0 = \frac{D_1}{(1 + r)} + \frac{D_2}{(1 + r)^2} + \frac{D_3}{(1 + r)^3} + \frac{P_3}{(1 + r)^3} $
Where:
- D1D_1, D2D_2, and D3D_3 are the dividends for Years 1, 2, and 3.
- P3P_3 is the price at the end of Year 3, which can be calculated using the constant growth model from Year 4 onward.
- rr is the required rate of return (12% or 0.12).
Dividends Calculation:
- Last dividend ( $D_0$) = $1.15
- Growth rates:
- Years 1-2: 15%
- Year 3: 13%
- Year 4 onward: 6%
Calculate the dividends:
$ D_1 = D_0 \times (1 + g_1) = 1.15 \times (1 + 0.15) = 1.15 \times 1.15 = 1.3225 $ $ D_2 = D_1 \times (1 + g_1) = 1.3225 \times (1 + 0.15) = 1.3225 \times 1.15 = 1.520875 $ $ D_3 = D_2 \times (1 + g_2) = 1.520875 \times (1 + 0.13) = 1.520875 \times 1.13 = 1.72075 $
Price at Year 3:
The price at Year 3 can be calculated using the Gordon Growth Model:
$ P_3 = \frac{D_4}{(r - g)} $
Where:
- D4=D3×(1+g3)D_4 = D_3 \times (1 + g_3)
- g=6%g = 6\%
Calculate
D4D_4:
$ D_4 = D_3 \times (1 + g_3) = 1.72075 \times (1 + 0.06) = 1.72075 \times 1.06 = 1.826185 $
Now calculate
P3P_3:
$ P_3 = \frac{D_4}{(r - g)} = \frac{1.826185}{(0.12 - 0.06)} = \frac{1.826185}{0.06} = 30.436417 $
Now Substitute Back to Calculate P0P_0:
Now we can substitute everything back into our formula for
P0P_0:
$ P_0 = \frac{1.3225}{(1 + 0.12)} + \frac{1.520875}{(1 + 0.12)^2} + \frac{1.72075}{(1 + 0.12)^3} + \frac{30.436417}{(1 + 0.12)^3} $
Calculating each term:
- P0≈1.32251.12+1.5208751.2544+1.720751.404928+30.4364171.404928P_0 \approx \frac{1.3225}{1.12} + \frac{1.520875}{1.2544} + \frac{1.72075}{1.404928} + \frac{30.436417}{1.404928}
Calculating values:
$ P_0 \approx 1.179464 + 1.214934 + 1.225234 + 21.63432 $
Thus,
$ P_0 \approx 25.2539 $
Step 2: Calculate P1andP2.P_1^ and P_2^.
Using the same logic:
$ P_1 = P_0(1+r) = P_0(1+0.12) \approx 25.2539 * 1.12 \approx 28.287 $
$ P_2 = P_0(1+r)^2 = P_0(1+0.12)^2 \approx P_0 * 1.2544 \approx 25.2539 * 1.2544 \approx 31.686 $
Step 3: Calculate Dividend Yield and Capital Gains Yield
Dividend Yield
For Year 1: $ Dividend Yield_{Y1} = \frac{D_1}{P_0} = \frac{1.3225}{25.2539} \approx 0.0524 \text{ or } 5.24% $
For Year 2: $ Dividend Yield_{Y2} = \frac{D_2}{P_1} = \frac{1.520875}{28.287} \approx 0.0538 \text{ or } 5.38% $
For Year 3: $ Dividend Yield_{Y3} = \frac{D_3}{P_2} = \frac{1.72075}{31.686} \approx 0.0543 \text{ or } 5.43% $
Capital Gains Yield
The capital gains yield is equal to the growth rate of the dividends for each year.
- For Year 1: 15%
- For Year 2: 15%
- For Year 3: 13%
Part 2: Kassidy's Kabob House
Required Rate of Return Calculation
The required rate of return for preferred stock can be calculated using the formula:
$ r = \frac{D}{P} $
Where:
Calculating:
$ r = \frac{5}{50} = 0.10 \text{ or } 10% $
Part 3: McCaffrey's Inc.
Step 4: Calculate Value of Operations
The value of operations can be calculated using the free cash flow model:
$ V = \frac{FCF(1+g)}{WACC - g} $
Where:
- FCF = $100,000
- g=7%g = 7\%
- WACC=11%WACC = 11\%
Calculating:
$ V_{operations} = \frac{100,000(1+0.07)}{0.11 - 0.07} = \frac{107,000}{0.04} = $2,675,000 $
Step 5: Total Value Calculation
Total value includes both operating value and non-operating assets:
Non-operating assets: $325,000
Total Value Calculation:
$ Total,Value = V_{operations} + Non,operating,assets = $2,675,000 + $325,000 = $3,000,000 $
Step 6: Estimated Value of Common Equity
Since there is no preferred stock issued, common equity equals total value minus debts.
Debts: $1,000,000
Estimated Value of Common Equity:
$ Common,Equity,Value = Total,Value - Long-term,Debt = $3,000,000 - $1,000,000 = $2,000,000 $
Step 7: Estimated Per-Share Stock Price
Calculating per-share price:
Number of shares outstanding:
50,000
Per-share price calculation:
$ Per,Share,Price = \frac{Common,Equity,Value}{Shares,Outstanding} = \frac{2,000,000}{50,000} = $40 $
