A firm has an excess cash flow of $4.8m. It had 3m shares outstanding and was considering paying a cash dividend, corresponding to a 40% payout. The stock traded in the market at $88.00 per share. Assume that the average investor holds 131 shares of the company’s stock.
Note: The term “k” is used to represent thousands (× $1,000).
Required: What would be the average portfolio value after a
re-purchase scenario?
$_______k Do not round intermediate calculations. Input your answer in thousands ($k) rounded to 3 decimal places (for example: 28.31k).
Ans:Average Value of Portfolio= Average Number of Share*Value of Share
=> Price Per Share= Market Cap/Number of Share
Market Cap after Dividend Payout= Dividend Payout- Total Current Market Value
Total Current Market Value= Number of Share* Price Per share
=> 3,000,000*88
=> 264,000,000
Dividend Payout= excess Cash flow* dividend Payout
=> 4,800,000*40%
=> 1,920,000
Market Cap after dividend Payout= 264,000,000-1,920,000
=> 262,080,000
Price per share=262,080,000/3,000,000
=> $87.36 Per Share
Average Portfolio Value after a re-purchase= $87.36*131
=> 11,444.16 or 11.44 K
