b. Consider the following information about three stocks: Probability of State of i. ii. iii. iv. State of Economy V. Boom Recession Economy 0.40 0.60 From the information given, you are required to answer the following questions. Compute the Standard Deviation for each stock. Compute the Coefficient Variation for each stock. Based on your computation in part (i) and (ii), which stock is riskier? Explain your answer. Rate of Return if State Occurs Stock Hang Stock Hang Jebat 7% 13% Tuah 28% (5%) Stock Hang Kasturi 15% 3% Assume that you have RM14,000 invested in Stock Hang Jebat whose beta is 1.5, RM19,000 invested in Stock Hang Kasturi whose beta is 2.5 and RM17,000 invested in Stock Hang Tuah whose beta is 1.6. Determine what is the beta of this portfolio. Based on your answer in part (iv), compute the required rate of return for this portfolio, given that the market rate of return is 13% and risk-free rate is 5%.
Astromet is financed entirely by common stock and has a beta of 1.20. The firm pays no taxes. The stock has a price-earnings multiple of 11.0 and is priced to offer a 10.9% expected return. The company decides to repurchase half the common stock and substitute an equal value of debt. Assume that the debt yields a risk-free 4.6%. Calculate the following: Required: a. The beta of the common stock after the refinancing b. The required return and risk premium on the common stock before the refinancing c. The required return and risk premium on the common stock after the refinancing d. The required return on the debt e. The required return on the company (i.e, stock and debt combined) after the refinancing If EBIT remains constant: f. What is the percentage increase in earnings per share after the refinancing? g-1. What is the new price-earnings multiple? g-2. Has anything happened to the stock price? Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below. Reg A to E Reg F to G2…
