1、CHAPTER 11AN INTRODUCTION TO SECURITY VALUATIONAnswers to Questions1.The top-down valuation process begins by examining the influence of the general economy on all firms and the security markets. The next step is to analyze the various industries in light of the economic environment. The final step
2、is to select and analyze the individual firms within the superior industries and the common stocks of these firms. The top-down approach thus assumes that the first two steps (economy-market and industry) have a significant influence on the individual firm and its stock (the third step). In contrast
3、, the bottom-up approach assumes that it is possible to select investments (i.e. firms) without considering the aggregate market and industry influences.2.It is intuitively logical that aggregate market analysis precede industry and company analysis because the government and federal agencies can ex
4、ert influence on the aggregate economy via fiscal (changes in government spending, taxes, etc.) and monetary (changing money supply, interest rates, etc.) policy. Further, inflation, another aggregate economic variable, must be considered because of its major impact on interest rates and the spendin
5、g and saving/investment of consumers and corporations. Therefore, a major division is the asset allocation among countries based upon the differential economic outlook including exchange rates (the outlook for the currency).Again, industry analysis should precede individual security analysis since t
6、here are several factors that are generally national in scope but have a pervasive effect on some industries - e.g., industry-wide strikes, import/ export quotas, etc. In addition, alternative industries feel the impact of economic change at different points in the business cycle -e.g., industries m
7、ay lead or lag an expansion. Further, some industries are cyclical (e.g., steel, auto), some are stable (utilities, food chains, etc.).The thrust of the argument is that very few, if any, industries perform well in a recession, and a “good” company in a “poor” industry may be difficult to find.3.All
8、 industries would not react identically to changes in the economy simply because of the different nature of business. The auto industry for instance tends to do much better than the economy during expansions but also tends to do far worse during contractions as consumers consumption patterns change.
9、 In contrast, the earnings of utilities undergo modest changes during either expansion or recession since they serve a necessity and thus their sales are somewhat immune to fluctuations. Also, some industries “lead” the economy while others only react late in the cycle (e.g., construction).4.Estimat
10、ing the value for a bond is easier than estimating the value for common stock since the size and the time pattern of returns from the bond over its life are known amounts. Specifically, a bond promises to make interest payments during the life of the bond (usually every 6 months) plus payment of pri
11、ncipal on the bonds maturity date. With common stock, there are no such guarantees.5.The required rate of return on an investment is primarily determined by three major factors: (1) the economys real risk-free rate (RRFR), (2) the expected rate of inflation (I), and (3) a risk premium (RP). While th
12、is basic framework will apply no matter what country you choose to invest in, there will be significant differences in these factors among different countries over time. Among the specific reasons why an investor may have different required returns for U.S. and Japanese stocks are:The real risk-free
13、 rate: For all countries, this rate should be an approximation of the economys real growth rate. However, the real growth rate among countries might be significantly different due to differences in the growth rate of the labor force, growth rate in the average number of hours worked, and differences
14、 in the growth rate of labor productivity.The expected rate of inflation: Again, there are differences between the U.S. and Japanese inflation rate that are bound to imply a difference between the required return between the two countries.The risk premium: The risk premium is derived from business r
15、isk, financial risk, liquidity risk, exchange rate risk, and country risk. Each of these components is influenced by differences in general economic variability, political conditions, trade relations, and operating leverage employed within the countries. It is necessary to evaluate these differences
16、 in risk factors and assign a unique risk premium for each country.6.The nominal risk-free rate (NRFR) is composed of two factors: (1) real risk-free rate (RRFR) and (2) expected rate of inflation E(I). As mentioned in the answer to question #5, the real risk-free rate for all countries is an approx
17、imation of the economys real growth rate. It is highly unlikely that two countries will have the same real risk-free rate due to differences in the growth rates. Also, the expected rate of inflation will vary from country to country. Taking these factors into account, one would not expect the U.S. n
18、ominal risk-free rate to be the same as that in Germany. As Exhibits 11.6 and 11.7 illustrate, Germanys nominal risk-free rate is expected to be lower than that of the U.S. in 2003.7.No, the Indonesian and United Kingdom stocks should have significantly different risk premiums. Specifically, Indones
19、ian stocks should have much larger risk premiums because they are relatively new securities, lack liquidity, and in many cases the underlying firms are involved in highly risky ventures (i.e. business risk). On the other hand, United Kingdom stocks typically are issued by established firms, quite li
20、quid, and the underlying firms are typically engaged in less speculative activities. 8.No, the Singapore stock should be more risky than the United States stock based upon similar reasoning as presented in question #7.9. Student Exercise10. Student Exercise11. The relative valuation ratios to evalua
21、te a stock should be used in cases where:(1) a good set of comparable entities (e.g., industries or similar companies) exists, or (2) when the aggregate market is not at a valuation extreme (e.g., a seriously overvalued or undervalued market).12. The discounted cash-flow valuation approaches can be
22、used for stocks that pay dividends, particularly in the case of a stable, mature firm where the assumption of relatively constant growth for the long term is appropriate. The present value of operating cash flow technique can be used when comparing firms that have diverse capital structures.The pres
23、ent value of free cash flow to equity is important to an equity holder since this approach measures the amount of cash flow available to the equity holder after debt payments and expenditures to maintain the firms asset base. 13. The two valuation approaches should not be considered to be competitiv
24、e approaches, rather the text suggests that both approaches should be used in the valuation of common stock. The discounted cash flow techniques reflect how we describe value, that is, the present value of expected cash flows. However, these techniques could generate values that are substantially di
25、fference from the prevailing prices in the marketplace. On the other hand, the relative valuation techniques provide information on how the market is currently valuing the stock. These techniques should be used together in determining equity valuation, that is, the approaches should be considered co

28、rket price of $96.00, the promised yield would be $9.00/$96.00 = 9.375%, which is less than your required rate of return of 11%. Therefore, you would decide against a purchase at this price. The maximum price you will be willing to pay is $81.82.4.Earnings per share: last year$10.00Dividends per sha
29、re: last year$6.00Estimated earnings per share: this year$11.00Required rate of return12%Expected sales price at end of year$132.00Since the last dividend payout ratio = $6.00/$10.00 = 60%, and assuming you maintain the same payout ratio, then dividends per share at the end of the year is: EPS x Pay
30、out = $11.00 x 60% = $6.60. Therefore, the present value of BBCs share is:Thus $123.75 is the maximum price you would be willing to pay for BBCs stock.5.Earnings per share: last year$10.00Dividends per share: last year$6.00Required rate of return 8%Expected sell price$110.00Thus $107.96 is the maxim

34、. As an example of each, suppose ABC company saw an increase in demand for their product, knowing that they have a clearly superior product to others in the industry and their customers are extremely loyal, they will raise prices, thus generating more net income per sale, and have greater profit mar
35、gin. As can be seen from the formula, holding other things constant, ABC will achieve a greater ROE.待添加的隐藏文字内容3Likewise, suppose demand for the product has increased on an industry wide basis. ABC knows if they raise their prices they may lose sales to the competition. As a result they decide to inc
36、rease their leverage to increase ROE.The final method of increasing ROE is by increasing overall efficiency and thus increasing the dollar value of sales to assets on hand.The student should provide a numerical example of each of these effects.12.Although grocery chains realize a very low profit mar
37、gin because of heavy competition (around 1%), they do enjoy a very high asset turnover ratio, thereby enabling them to achieve a ROE of about 12%.13.Student Exercise14.Required rate of return (k)14%Return on equity (ROE)30%Retention rate (RR)90%Earnings per share (EPS)$5.00Then growth rate=RR x ROE=
38、.90 x .30 = .27Since the required rate of return (k) is less than the growth rate (g), the earnings multiplier cannot be used (the answer is meaningless).However, if ROE = .19 and RR = .60,then growth rate = .60 x .19 = .114If next years earnings are expected to be: $5.57 = $5.00 x (1 + .114)Applyin
39、g the P/E: Price = (15.38) x ($5.57) = $85.69Thus, you would be willing to pay up to $85.69 for Maddy Computer Company stock.15(a).Projected dividends next 3 years:Year 1 ($1.25 x 1.08) = $1.35Year 2 ($1.35 x 1.08) = $1.46Year 3 ($1.46 x 1.08) = $1.58Required rate of return12%Growth rate of dividends8%The present value of the stock is:15(b).Growth rate8%Required rate of return12%15(c).Assuming all the above assumptions remain the same, the price at end of year 3 will be:16.Student Exercise
