Price - Earnings Meinod
Valuation per share = Expected Earnings of Firm ger share
Consider a firm that is expected to generate earnings of $3 per share next year. If the mean ratio of
share price to expected earnings of competitors in the same industry is 15, then the valuation of the
firm's shares is
Valuation per share Expected earnings of fim per share x Mean industry PE ratio

To illustrate how the dividend discount modet can be used to value a stock, consider a stock that is
‘expected to pay a dividend of $7 per share annually forever. This constant dividend represents a perpe>
(Ruty, oran annuity that lasts forever, Hence the present value of the cash flows (dividend payments)

Unfortunately, the valuation of most stocks is not ths simple because thir dividends are

Forcasted earnings in n years

G ~ growth rate
a - number of years
If investors expect that the earnings per share will grow by 2)percent annually and expect to sell
the firm's stock in three years, the earnings per share in three years are forecast to be
Earnings in three years = $12 x (1 +- 0.02)?
= $12 1.0612
The forecasted earnings per share can be multiplied by the PE ratio of the firm's industry to fore-
‘cast the future stock price. If the mean PE ratio of all other firms in the same industry is 6, the
stock price in three years can be forecast as follows:

The Bulldog Company paid $1.5 of dividends this year. If its dividends are expected to
row at a rate of 3 percent per year, what is the expected dividend per share for
Bulldog five years from today?
The current price of XYZ stock is $25 per share. If XY2's current dividend Is $1 per
share and investors’ required rate of return is 10 percent, what is the expected
growth rate of dividends for XYZ, based on the constant growth dividend valuation
model?

1. Risk-Adjusted Return Measurements Assume
the following information over a five-year
period:
m Average risk-free rate % 6%
@ Average return for Crane stock % 11%
@ Average return for Load stock % 14%
m Standard deviation of Crane stock returns % 2%
@ Standard deviation of Load stock returns % 4%@ Beta of Crane stock % 0.8
@ Beta of Load stock % 1.1
Determine which stock has higher risk-adjusted returns
according to the Sharpe index. Which stock has higher
risk-adjusted returns according to the Treynor index?
Show your work.
2. Measuring Expected Return Assume Mess
stock has a beta of 1.2. If the risk-free rate is 7 percent
and the market return is 10 percent, what is the
expected return of Mess stock?
3. Using the PE Method You found that Verto
stock is expected to generate earnings of $4.38 per
share this year and that the mean PE ratio for its
industry is 27.195. Use the PE valuation method todetermine the value of Verto shares.
4. Using the Dividend Discount Model Suppose
that you are interested in buying the stock of a company that
has a policy of paying a $6 per share dividend every year.
Assuming no changes in the firm's
policies, what is the value of a share of stock if the
required rate of return is 11 percent?
5. Using the Dividend Discount Model Micro,
Inc., will pay a dividend of $2.30 per share next year. If
the company plans to increase its dividend by 9 percent
per year indefinitely, and you require a 12 percent
return on your investment, what should you pay for the
company’s stock?
6. Using the Dividend Discount Model Suppose
you know that a company just paid an annual dividendof $1.75 per share on its stock and that the dividend
will continue to grow at a rate of 8 percent per year. If
the required return on this stock is 10 percent, what is
the current share price?
7. Deriving the Required Rate of Return The
next expected annual dividend for Sun, Inc., will be
$1.20 per share, and analysts expect the dividend to
grow at an annual rate of 7 percent indefinitely. If Sun
stock currently sells for $22 per share, what is the
required rate of return?
8. Deriving the Required Rate of Return A share
of common stock currently sells for $110. Current
dividends are $8 per share annually and are expected to
grow at 6 percent per year indefinitely. What is the rateof return required by investors in the stock?
9. Deriving the Required Rate of Return A stock
has a beta of 2.2, the risk-free rate is 6 percent, and the
expected return on the market is 12 percent. Using the
CAPM, what would you expect the required rate of
return on this stock to be? What is the market risk
premium?
10. Deriving a Stock’s Beta You are considering
investing in a stock that has an expected return of 13
percent. If the risk-free rate is 5 percent and the market
risk premium is 7 percent, what must the beta of this
stock be?
11. Measuring Stock Returns Suppose you bought astock at the beginning of the year for $76.50. During
the year, the stock paid a dividend of $0.70 per share
and had an ending share price of $99.25. What is the
total percentage return from investing in that stock
over the year?
14. Value at Risk Assume that Quitar Co. has a beta
of 1.31.
a. If you assume that the stock market has a maximum
expected loss of
-3.2 percent on a daily basis (based on a 95 percent
confidence level), what is the
maximum daily loss for the Quitar Co. stock?
b. If you have $19,000 invested in Quitar Co. stock,
what is your maximum daily dollar loss?
