Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct Answer is B.$38.39.

Explanation:

This question requires us to tell current market value of MAIN CUP INC share. To calculate market value we have to discount all dividend future payments using market rate of return. Detail calculations are given below.

Year 1 discount factor   = 1/1.12 = 0.893-A

Year 2 discount factor  = A/1.12 = 0.797-B

Year 1 Dividend = 2.5 * 1.2  = 3-C

Year 2 Dividend = C* 1.2 = 3.6-D

Terminal Value Year 2 = 3.6(1.03)/(0.12-0.03) = 41.2-E

Market Value = (A*C) + ((D+E)*B) = $ 38.30
