You are considering a stock that is expected to pay dividends during the next five years of $0.50, $0,52, $0,54, $0,56 and $0.58. You estimate that you can sell the stock for $100 at the end of five years. Your required rate of return is 15% and the stock is currently selling for $65. If you purchase the stock, what rate of return do you expect to earn

Sagot :

Answer:

9.7%

Explanation:

The rate of return can be determined using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 0 = -65

Cash flow in year 1 = $0.50

Cash flow in year 2 = $0.52

Cash flow in year 3 = $0.54

Cash flow in year 4 = $0.56

Cash flow in year 5 = $0.58 + $100

Rate of return = 9.7%

To find the rate of return using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button.
