The purpose of this analysis is to find an intrinsic value for Microsoft (MSFT) using the both the Constant Dividend Discount Model (DDM) and the Non-constant DDM. You will need to (1) estimate Beta in order to calculate the required return for MSFT; (2) estimate dividend growth rate; and (3) estimate future dividends.
Submit your Excel spreadsheet with all data and formulas so that your answers can be replicated. You may answer the questions on the spreadsheet. HOWEVER, WRAP YOUR TEXT!!! I do NOTwant to see text running across 40 columns.Remember, Excel is not a word processor. Do a simple draft print to see if your output is in readable form. Follow instructions as written. NEATNESS AND ORGANIZATION MATTERS!
2. Using the prices provided, calculate the monthly returns for each of the stocks, where r = (Pt/Pt-1) – 1; which is the same as [(Pt-Pt-1)/ Pt-1] as I covered in the Lecture Video. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE DATA IS LISTED FROM DEC 2008 TO DEC 2018! SO BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR RETURN FORMULA!There are 121 months to calculate 120 monthly returns. You may post monthly returns as (1) decimals to 6 placesor as (2) percentages to 4 places. For example, average return for MSFT shouldbe written as .009999 or .9999%.
(10 points)
As a check, you should find your average returns to be: MSFT = 1.7997% and SPY = 1.1048%.
(5 points)
Calculate the beta for each period:
(a) Estimate Beta over the full 120 monthly returns (10 years): Months 1 - 120
(b) Estimate Beta over the first 60 monthly returns (5 years): Months 1 - 60
(c) Estimate Beta over the second 60 monthly returns (5 years): Months 61 – 120
(d) Estimate Beta over the last 36 monthly returns (3 years): Months 85 – 120

Formulas:
Beta measures the volatility (or systematic risk) of a stock relative to the volatility (unsystematic risk) of the whole market. Beta helps the investor to understand the direction in which the stock is likely to move compared to the market and how risky it is with respect to the market.

Are all disciplines in the University equally boring or there are some more boring than others? To answer that question, a study performed at Columbia University counted the number of times per 5-minute interval when professors from three different departments said “uh” or “ah” during lectures to fill gaps between words. These counts were used as a proxy (approximation) for the measure of class boredom. The data from observing one hundred of 5-minute intervals from each of three departments’ professors were recorded in...
