Question:
The Lex Corporation issued a new series of bonds on January 1, 2000. These bonds were sold at par, have a 12 percent coupon and mature in 30 years, on December 31, 2029. Coupon payments are made on June 30 and December 31. Assume that you purchased an outstanding Lex bond on March 1, 2023, when the going rate of interest was 15.5 percent. How large a check must you have written to complete the transaction? Penn Electric just developed a revolutionary new type of method used to hydraulically generate electricity which is extremely efficient for use in a certain geographic location. As a result, Penn Electric is expected to experience a 15 percent rate of growth for the next 5 years, after which, growth will slow to 5 percent into the foreseeable future. The market requires a 12 percent return on Penn Electric stock and the most recent dividend paid was $1.75 per share.
Calculate the theoretical value of the stock today.
