Chapter 8 The Valuation of Stock
Valuation of Preferred Stock • Perpetual preferred • Present value of the dividends
Valuation of Perpetual Preferred Stock • Pp = Dp/Kp • If Dp = $4, Kp =.08 • Pp = $4/.08 = $50
Valuation of Preferred Stock • Finite life preferred • Present value of the dividend and the repayment of the par value
Valuation of Finite Life Preferred Stock • Dp = $4 • S = $100 • N = 30 • Kp = .08 • V = $54.93
Investing in Common Stock • Source of Return • Dividends • Capital gains
Realized Return • Difference in short and long-term capital gains taxation favor capital gains • Transactions costs (e.g., commissions) favor dividend income
Common Stock Valuation • The determination of what a stock is worth; the stock's intrinsic value • If the price exceeds the valuation, buy the stock • If the price is less than the valuation, short the stock
Common Stock Valuation Assuming a Fixed Dividend • V=D/k • Same as perpetual, preferred stock valuation
Common Stock ValuationThe Dividend -- Growth Model • Value depends on the • the required return • the dividend • the growth in the dividend • V = D(1+g)/(k-g)
Dividend - Growth Model Illustration • D = $1 • K = .1 (10%) • g = .06 (6%) • V = $1(1.06)/(.1-.06) = $26.50
Dividend - Growth Model • Growth may be uneven • Fundamental concept still applies
The Risk-adjusted Required Return • Adjustment depends on • the risk-free rate (rf) • the return on the market (rm) • the stock's beta
Alternative Valuation Techniques: Use of Ratios • Price-earnings ratios • Value = Earnings x Earnings multiple
Weaknesses in P/E Ratios • Which earnings to use • The appropriate multiplier
Other Ratios • Price / Sales • Price / Book Value
