To determine: The Systematic Risk of Stock Return.
Introduction:
Systematic Risk is acknowledged as non diversifiable risks or market risk. Such category of risk is not intended to be separated by distinguishing assets. Systematic risk leads on how a particular investment in a distinguished portfolio that support financially to the total or aggregate risk of a business's financial funding. Unsystematic Risk is acknowledged as diversifiable or residual or particular risk. The proportion of a corporation’s total or aggregate risk which can be barred by holding such risks in a distinguished or as diversified asset portfolio.

- (1) Write out a formula that can be used to value any dividend-paying stock, regardless of its dividend pattern. (2) What is a constant growth stock? How are constant growth stocks valued? (3) What happens if a company has a constant gL that exceeds its rs? Will many stocks have expected growth greater than the required rate of return in the short run (i.e., for the next few years)? In the long run (i.e., forever)?arrow_forwardSuppose that a firm with a stock price of $80 just announced that it expects to pay a $100 per share liquidating dividend in 1 year, although the exact amount of the dividend depends on the performance of the company this year. Assume that the CAPM is a good description of stock price returns and that the stock’s beta is 1.5, the market’s expected return is 12%, and the risk-free rate is 5%. 1) Is the stock priced correctly now? 2) What is the alpha of the stock? 3) What would you expect to happen to the stock price in an efficient market after the announcement?

All risk except that related to broad market ovements can, and presumably will, be diversified away. After all, why accept risk at can be eliminated easily? This implies that investors are primarily concerned th the risk of their portfolios rather than the risk of the individual securities in the rtfolio. How, then, should the risk of an individual stock be measured? The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) provides one answer to that question. stock might be quite risky if held by itself, but-because…arrow_forward

(d) Firm A reports a Profit Margin of 6.5% and a Total Asset Turnover Ratio of 3.25. Their total asset level is $8,500,000. Assume there are 700,000 shares outstanding and the PE ratio is 11. Also, assume the Return on Equity is 16%. Based on this, calculate the MV/BV ratio.arrow_forwardExploring Finance: Betas and Stock Volatility. Betas: Stock Volatility Conceptual Overview: Explore how stock volatility relates to the beta coefficient b risk measure. The tendency of a stock to move with the market is measured by its beta coefficient, b. When first loaded, the graph shows the line for an average stock, which necessarily matches the market return. In a year when the market returns 10%, the average stock returns 10%. And in a year when the market goes down -10%, the average stock goes down -10% also. The slope of the line for the average stock is b = 1.0. A more volatile stock would change more extremely. Drag the line vertically so that it has a slope of b = 2.0. For this more volatile stock, in a year when the market returned 20%, the volatile stock did better with a 30% return, and when the market lost -10%, the volatile stock lost big with a -30% change. Now drag the line so that it has a slope of b = 0.5. This stock is less volatile than the average stock and…arrow_forward
