just answer this question
Shiller’s analysis of efficient markets (applied to a single stock).
You are studying the past pattern of dividend payments of a specific firm. You know this firm has paid dividends regularly starting in 1990 and on average its dividends have typically grown about 1% per year, although in some years unexpected events led to higher dividend growth and in some years to lower dividend growth. You also know that the firm has an expected return to equity of 5% based on its correlation with market returns.
A. Based on the efficient market theory as elaborated by Shiller, what is the best estimate of the firm’s expected stock price in time period t, * Pt , as a function of its next dividend payment in time t+1? Briefly explain what justifies this model of the expected stock price. (Hint: Give a simple reason why investors buy stocks.)
B. Would you expect * Pt to increase over time? Why or why not?
C. According to Shiller, what evidence should you look for about the actual stock price Pt that would help you determine whether markets are efficient? Explain your answer.
D. Now assume your company’s stock is about to experience a bubble. Define a bubble, and make up a story to explain why this bubble might occur and what types of human psychology contribute to its formation. Consider this a “creative writing exercise”, so you can make up a company and fabricate details. However, you must use and explain at least two terms in your story from behavioral finance discussed in the readings and lectures.
Provide detailed step by step solution explaining in words on how you get to the answers. The answers are provided to you and highlighted, however you have to explain step by step on how you get to the answers:
6.1.Carbondale Company has the following credit policy 2/10, net 30. Carbondale also charges 1% per month interest on all accounts after 30 days. The following table shows the collection schedule of all sales:
|
Collection within |
10 days |
30 days |
60 days |
90 days |
|
Percentage |
10% |
30% |
40% |
20% |
To improve the collection rate, Carbondale is thinking of imposing a higher interest rate, 1.5% per month, on all accounts paid after 30 days. Carbondale believes that the new policy will change the collection schedule as follows:
|
Collection within |
10 days |
30 days |
60 days |
90 days |
|
Percentage |
10% |
50% |
30% |
10% |
There will be no change in the total sales as a result of this new policy. The cost of capital for Carbondale is 12%. Should it try the new policy?
NPV(old) = .9899, NPV(new) = .9921, yes. ♥
6.2. Dickson City Company has annual sales of $5 million, while the cost of goods sold is $3.2 million. All sales are made on a cash basis. The owner of Dickson has come up with the plan of giving credit to the customers. He believes that this will increase the sales by 25% without increasing any of the fixed costs. He thinks that 20% of the customers will pay within 30 days, 40% within 60 days, 37% within 90 days, and 3% of the customers will default on the sales. The cost of capital to Dickson is 12%.
(A) Should Dickson City introduce the policy of credit sales?
NPV(cash) = $1.8 million, NPV(credit) = 1.941 million, yes. ♥
(B) The manager of the firm doubts whether the sales will actually increase by 25% as a result of this strategy. Find the minimum increase in sales to justify introduction of the new credit policy.
