Answer 1

As per rules I am answering the first 4 subparts of the question

29: True

(Since creditors are outsiders they are paid before the owners)

30: Stock price = Annual dividend/(k-g)

= 1.5/(7%-1%)

= $25

31: PV= C0+ CF1/(1+r)^1 + CF2/(1+r)^2 …………CFn/(1+r)^n

= 1.5/1.08^1+1.95/1.08^2+(2.2+54.26)/1.08^3

= 47.88

32: Annual dividend = Stock price*Required rate

= 45.6*6%

= $2.74
