On page 237, do question 1 only

Read the case.  Focus on the information directly given about Ragan, Inc (not its competitors) 

Show all of these steps:

  • Start by computing total dividends given to the brother and sister 
  • Determine total shares outstanding for brother and sister
  • Determine total earnings for the company
  • Determine what fraction of earnings is paid as dividends (Payout ratio)
  • Then determine the fraction that is not paid as dividends (what is retained) = Retention ratio
  • Calculate growth rate by using formula: g = (ROE) X (Retention Ratio)
  • Determine the current dividend per share (D) based on the dividends paid and number of shares 
  • Determine the value per share of the company’s stock (P0) by using:

         P0 = D1 / (R – g)

        (Notice the formula uses D1, the next year dividend, which you have to determine)

Explanation & Answer

Question 1
Payback period= (80,000,000+121,000,000+162,000,000+221,000,000) = 584,000,000 in the first
four years +66,000,000 of 210,000,000 of the fifth year
=4.3
Payback period =4.3
Internal rate of return =0=-650,000,000+80,000,000/ (1+IRR) +121,000,000/ (1+IRR)………72,000,000/ (1+IRR) =0.48%
IRR=0.48%
Modified Internal Rate= 80,000,000*1.12^7=176854512
121,000,000*1.12^6=238832544
162,000,000*1.12^5=2854993552
221,000,000*1.12^4=347747778
