The expected pretax return on three stocks is divided between dividends and capital gains in the following way:
Stock | Expected Dividend | Expected Capital Gain |
A | $0 | $10 |
B | 5 | 5 |
C | 10 | 0 |
Required:
a. If each stock is priced at $185, what are the expected net percentage returns on each stock to (i) a pension fund that does not pay taxes, (ii) a corporation paying tax at 21% (the effective tax rate on dividends received by corporations is 6.3%), and (iii) an individual with an effective tax rate of 10% on dividends and 5% on capital gains?
b. Suppose that investors pay 40% tax on dividends and 10% tax on capital gains. If stocks are priced to yield an after-tax return of 10%, what would A, B, and C each sell for? Assume the expected dividend is a level perpetuity.
