Chapter 9Stock Valuation at Ragan Engines
Question 1
Earnings per share 5.35
Return on Equity 21%
Required Return 18%
Number of Shares 300000
Divident per share = 640000 / 300000 2.13

Net income = EPS * # of Shares
= 5.35 * 300000
1605000

Annual Growth Rate:
g = RR * ROE
= 1- (640,000 / 1605000) * .25
= (1 - .40) * .25
= .6 * .25
0.15
15%

Value per Share:
P0 = Div / R - g
= D (1 + g) / R - g
=2.13 (1 + .15) / .18 - .15
= 2.4495 / .03
81.65

Question 6 - how to increase the price of stock?
Stock is valued by discounting its dividends. To increase the price of stock, increase the dividends.
Dividends could be increased by reducing retained earnings, but this is a risk because firms retain earnings to create future dividends.
