...27 THE BASIC TOOLS OF FINANCE WHAT’S NEW IN THE SIXTH EDITION: There are two new In the News boxes on “A Cartoonist’s Guide to Stock Picking” and “Is the Efficient Markets Hypothesis Kaput?” LEARNING OBJECTIVES: By the end of this chapter, students should understand: the relationship between present value and future value. the effects of compound growth. how risk-averse people reduce the risk they face. how asset prices are determined. CONTEXT AND PURPOSE: Chapter 27 is the third chapter in a four-chapter sequence on the level and growth of output in the long run. In Chapter 25, we discuss how capital and labor are among the primary determinants of output and growth. In Chapter 26, we addressed how saving and investment in capital goods affect the production of output. In Chapter 28, we will show some of the tools people and firms use when choosing capital projects in which to invest. Because both capital and labor are among the primary determinants of output, Chapter 28 will address the market for labor. The purpose of Chapter 27 is to introduce the students to some tools that people use when they participate in financial markets. We will show how people compare different sums of money at different points in time, how they manage risk, and how these concepts combine to help determine the value of a financial asset, such as a share of stock. KEY POINTS: Because savings can earn interest, a sum of money today is more valuable than the same sum of money...

...Fundamentals of Corporate Finance, Sixth Edition, Alternate Edition III. Valuation of Future Cash Flows 8. Stock Valuation © The McGraw−Hill Companies, 2002 273 CHAPTER Stock Valuation 8 When the stock market closed on July 3, 2001, the common stock of McGrawHill, publisher of fine-quality college textbooks, was going for $67.40 per share. On that same day, stock in General Motors (GM), the world’s largest automaker, closed at $64.72, while eBay, the on-line auction company, closed at $69.16. Since the stock prices of these three companies were so similar, you might expect that the three companies would be offering similar dividends to their stockholders, but you would be wrong. In fact, GM’s annual dividend was $2.00 per share, McGraw-Hill’s was $0.98 per share, and eBay was paying no dividends at all! As we will see in this chapter, the dividends currently being paid are one of the primary factors we look at when attempting to value common stocks. However, it is obvious from looking at eBay that current dividends are not the end of the story, so this chapter explores dividends, stock values, and the connection between the two. I n our previous chapter, we introduced you to bonds and bond valuation. In this chapter, we turn to the other major source of financing for corporations, common and preferred stock. We first describe the cash flows associated with a share of stock and then go on to develop a very famous result, the dividend growth model. From...

...Economy and Environment Program for Southeast Asia ENVIRONMENTAL ECONOMICS A TEACHERS’ MANUAL Undergraduate Level By Herminia A. Francisco Bui Dung The Pham Khanh Nam August 2005 1 PREFACE This manual was written to support the teaching of undergraduate environmental economics course in Vietnam Universities. Some time in 2003, a number of senior researchers of the Economy and Environment Program for Southeast Asia (EEPSEA) requested that EEPSEA offers a 3-week training course for teachers of Environmental Economics in the country. The request in turn was precipitated by the new mandate from the Ministry of Education in Vietnam that makes Environmental Economics a required course in all Bachelors’ Degree in Economics and Management for all colleges and universities. Aware that the capacity of teachers to teach Environmental Economics varies across the country as training of teachers varies also from selfstudy, short-term training, to a formal course in an undergraduate/graduate degree from local universities or abroad, EEPSEA acceded to the request and offered the course in August 2005. The course though can be used also in other colleges and universities in Southeast Asia. The training course was designed to teach both the subject matter contained in an internationally-comparable undergraduate environmental course and to enhance teachers’ skills in teaching this subject. A teachers’ manual was developed to support the teaching of the training ...

...CHAPTER 9 SOURCES OF CAPITAL: OWNERS’ EQUITY Changes from Eleventh Edition Updated from Eleventh Edition Approach By comparison with Chapter 8, this chapter’s equity topics are relatively straightforward. I try to downplay the differences between equity accounting for unincorporated and incorporated businesses. As a consultant to the former, I urge them to impute market salaries for their employee-owners, so that their income can be compared with the pretax earnings of incorporated firms. Cases Xytech, Inc. provides practice in accounting for various owners’ equity transactions. Innovative Engineering Company involves comparison of alternative financing arrangements for a new company. UPC, Inc., examines the calculation of earnings per share for annual periods. Maxim Integrated Products, Inc., provides a platform to discuss accounting for stock options under PAS 123R. This is a new case with this edition. Problems Problem 9–1 a.

...Chapter 08 - Stock Valuation CHAPTER 8 STOCK VALUATION Answers to Concepts Review and Critical Thinking Questions 1. The value of any investment depends on the present value of its cash flows; i.e., what investors will actually receive. The cash flows from a share of stock are the dividends. Investors believe the company will eventually start paying dividends (or be sold to another company). In general, companies that need the cash will often forgo dividends since dividends are a cash expense. Young, growing companies with profitable investment opportunities are one example; another example is a company in financial distress. This question is examined in depth in a later chapter. The general method for valuing a share of stock is to find the present value of all expected future dividends. The dividend growth model presented in the text is only valid (a) if dividends are expected to occur forever, that is, the stock provides dividends in perpetuity, and (b) if a constant growth rate of dividends occurs forever. A violation of the first assumption might be a company that is expected to cease operations and dissolve itself some finite number of years from now. The stock of such a company would be valued by applying the general method of valuation explained in this chapter. A violation of the second assumption might be a start-up firm that isn’t currently paying any dividends but is expected to eventually start making dividend payments some number of years from now. This stock...

... BASIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Chapter Summary Financial statements are the primary means of communicating financial information to users. Chapter 2 covers the income statement, balance sheet, and statement of cash flows. Chapter 1 set forth the objectives of the financial reporting process, and offered the observation that these objectives are met in large part by a set of financial statements. In this chapter, we take up the task of introducing the balance sheet, income statement, and the statement of cash flows. The presentation is organized around the accounting equation. The equation serves as the basis for elementary transaction analysis. A continuing illustration examines the impact of a number of simple transactions upon the balance sheet of a simple service business. Revenue and expense transactions have been included so that we might introduce the income statement and statement of cash flows at an elementary level. This in turn has provided the opportunity to discuss and illustrate statement articulation. Before closing, the chapter emphasizes the importance of adequate disclosure regarding both financial and nonfinancial information, thereby reinforcing the Chapter 1 theme that the financial reporting process is broader than the financial statements. The chapter also covers accounting principles dealing with asset valuation, as well as an introduction to forms of business...
