a) What is the required rate of return on Jancos stock?
b) What is the Dividend Yield on Jancos Stock?
c) What is the Capital Gains Yield on Jancos Stock?
a) Price = $22.54
D0 = $3.80
g = 6.10%
D1 = D0 * (1 + g)
D1 = 3.80 * (1 + 0.0610)
D1 = $4.0318
Price = D1/(r - g)
r = D1/Price + g
r = 4.0318/22.54 + 0.061
r = 0.1788731145 + 0.061
r = 0.2398731145
r = 23.98731145%
The required rate of return on the stock = 23.98731145%
b) Dividend yield = D1/Price
Dividend yield = 4.0318/22.54
Dividend yield = 0.1788731145
Dividend yield = 17.88731145%
c) Capital gains yield on the stock = The required rate of reuturn - Dividend yield
Capital gains yield on the stock = 0.2398731145 - 0.1788731145
Capital gains yield on the stock = 0.061
Capital gains yield on the stock = 6.10%
