Determine current stock price:
1) IBM issued 10-year bonds with a par value of $1,000 and a coupon rate of 10%, paid semiannually. The yield to maturity on this bond is 12%. What is the present value of the coupon? Is the bond price greater or less than the face value ($1,000)?
2) Microsoft will pay its dividends of $6 in 2014 and $7.2 in 2015. It plans to pay its dividends of $24 after 2015 permanently. If the required return is 20 percent, what is the stock price in 2015? And what is the current stock price in 2013?
