- Which of the following statements is FALSE? Select one: O In recent years, an increasing number of firms have replaced dividend payouts with share repurchases. O The price of a share of stock is equal to the present value of the expected future dividends it will pay. O The law of one price implies that to value any security, we must determine the expected cash flows an investor will receive from owning it. O The dividend discount model values the stock based on a forecast of the future dividends paid to shareholders, O An investor might generate cash by choosing to sell the shares at some future date. O Fulture dividend payments and stock prices are not known with certainty: rather these values are based on the investor's expectations at the time the stock is purchased. O The dividend yield is the expected annual dividend of a stock, divided by its expected future sale price. O In the dividend discount model, we implicitly assume that any cash paid out to the shareholders takes the…arrow_forwardSuppose a stock is not currently paying dividends, and its management has announced that it will not pay a dividend for several years, but that it does expect to start paying dividends sometime in the future. Under these conditions, which of the following statements is most correct? Since it is expected to someday pay dividends, the value of the stock today can be found with this equation: PO = D1/(r - g). Under these conditions, we can estimate a value for the stock, but we cannot use any form of the constant growth DCF model to do so. Such a stock should have a value of zero until it actually begins paying dividends. The value of the stock can be found using DCF procedures by finding the present value of expected future dividends accounting for their timing and amount.arrow_forwardA.
