Two stocks each currently pay a dividend of $2.40 per share. It is anticipated that both firms dividends will grow annually at the rate of 3 percent. Firm A has a beta coefficient of 0.99 while the beta coefficient of firm B is 0.75.

Stock B: $

If stock As price were $32 and stock Bs price were $58, what would you do? Stock A is -Select- and -Select- be purchased.

Stock B is -Select- and -Select- be purchased.
