Ans.
a)
The required return on crafts stock will be given by Risk premium + Risk-free rate
= 8% + 5% = 13%
Now, the growth rate of dividend is
FV = PV * ( 1 + g)^5
where ,
FV is the future value,
PV is the Present value and
g is the growth rate.
$ 2.65 = $ 1.80 ( 1 + g)^5
( 1 + g)^5 = $ 2.65 / $1.80
g = ($ 2.65 / $1.80)^ 1/5 - 1
g = 0.08042 or 8.04%
Now the maximum cash price that Hamlin should pay will be given by if the craft is expected to pay a dividend of $2.86
= [ Next year dividend / ( Required return - growth rate)]
= $ 2.86 / 13% - 8.04% = $ 57.66
b)
1.
If the dividend growth rate is decreased to 2% then the actual growth rate will be 8.04% - 2% = 6.04%
Now the next year's dividend will be $2.65 *( 1 + 0.0604) = $2.81006
Now the new price will be [ $2.81006 / ( 13% - 6.04%)] = $35.1752 = $ 40.37 (approx).
2.
If the risk Premium is decrease to 7% then the required return will be 7% + 5% = 12%
Now the new price will be [ $2.86 / ( 12% - 8.04%)] $72.22. (approx)
