Applying a decision-making technique Today we have several decision-making methods. A tool for the mind, a well-liked career skills online resource, suggests the following decision-making techniques (n.d.). 1. Pareto Analysis - goals are prioritized then resources are applied to high priority items first, helpful when there are many goals being considered. 2. Paired Comparison Analysis - weigh the reletive importance of different courses of actions, helpful when all facts are not known for making the comparison of apples to oranages, and/or priorities are not clear or complete. 3.

...Risk in Housing Markets: An Equilibrium Approach⇤ Aurel Hizmo† NYU Stern January 30, 2012 Abstract Homeowners are overexposed to city-specific house price risk and income risks, which may be very di cult to insure against using standard financial instruments. This paper develops a micro-founded equilibrium model that transparently shows how this local uninsurable risk a↵ects individual location decisions and portfolio choices, and ultimately how it a↵ects prices in equilibrium. I estimate a version of this model using house price and wage data and provide estimates for risk premia for di↵erent cities, which imply that homes are on average about $20000 cheaper than they would be if owners were risk-neutral. This estimate is over $100000 for volatile coastal cities. Next, I simulate the model to study the e↵ects of financial innovation on equilibrium outcomes. Creating assets that hedge city-specific risks increases house prices by about 20% and productivity by about 10%. The average willingness to pay for completing the market per homeowner is between $10000 and $20000. Welfare gains come both from better risk-sharing and from more e cient sorting of households across cities. ⇤ I am deeply grateful to Patrick Bayer, Andrew Patton, and Peter Arcidiacono for their encouragement and support. I also thank Robert McMillan, Tim Bollerslev, Vish Viswanathan, Chris Timmins, Jimmy Roberts and the seminar participants at Duke Finance, the ERID Conference at Duke, Fed Board, NYU Stern...

...Ross et al.: 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...
