Questions 2:

A company’s $100 par value preferred stock with a dividend rate of 9.5% per year is currently priced at $103.26 per share. The company’s earnings are expected to grow at an annual rate of 5% for the foreseeable future. The cost of the company’s preferred stock is closest to:

A 、9.5%.

B、 9.2%.

C、 9.7%.

View answer resolution

【Answer to question 1】B

【analysis】

B is correct. With a fixed-rate non-callable bond, the before-tax cost of debt is the bond’s yield to maturity.

A is incorrect because the coupon rate is higher than the yield-to-maturity based on the bond selling above par value.

C is incorrect because the current yield is the coupon divided by the bond price which does not equal the yield-to-maturity.

【Answer to question 2】B

【analysis】

B is correct. rp = Dp/Pp (or Dividend/Price) = ($100 × 0.095)/$103.26 = 9.2%.

A is incorrect because it uses $100 as the denominator, i.e., ($100 × 0.095)/$100 = 9.5%.

C is incorrect because it assumes 5% growth in the dividend, i.e., 9.5 × (1.05)/103.26 = 9.7%

成功=時(shí)間+方法，自制力是這個(gè)等式的保障。世上無天才，高手都是來自刻苦的練習(xí)。而人們經(jīng)常只看到“牛人”閃耀的成績(jī)，其成績(jī)背后無比寂寞的勤奮。小編相信，每天都在勤奮練習(xí)，即使是一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)的進(jìn)步，大家一定可以成為人人稱贊的“牛人”。更多CFA考試資訊，點(diǎn)擊了解>
