A major new client, Ms. Victoria, has requested that Houston Financial presents an investment seminar on the stock price of Sugar Land Inc. Bonnie will analyze Sugar Land Inc (SL)

1. Assume that Sugar Land (SL) has a beta coefficient of 1.7, that the risk-free rate, Kf (the yield on 10 year T- bonds) is 7 percent, and that the market risk premium (KM - Kf) is 5 percent. What is the required rate of return on SL's stock according to CAPM?

Assume that SL is a constant growth company whose last dividend (D0), which was paid yesterday) was $4.00, and whose dividend is expected to grow indefinitely at a 4 percent rate. Assume the required rate of return for SL is 13%, (Different from your estimate of 1 above)

2. What is the firm's expected dividend stream over the next 3 years?
3. What is the firm's current stock price?
4. What is the stock's expected value 1 year from now?
5. What is the expected dividend yield, the capital gains yield, and the total return during the first year?

Now assume that the stock is currently selling at $36.29, no other changes.

6. What is the expected rate of return on the stock?
7. What would the stock price be if its dividends were expected to have zero growth?
