Answer:
value of the firm = 21.20 million
value of the firm = 20.80 million
Explanation:
given data
current profits = $400,000
annual rate = 4 percent
opportunity cost = 6 percent
solution
we get here value of the firm before pays out current profits as dividend is express as
value of the firm = current profits ( 1+opportunity cost ) ÷ ( opportunity cost - annual rate ) ................1
put here value
value of the firm = [tex]\frac{400000*(1+0.06)}{0.06-0.04}[/tex]
value of the firm = 21.20 million
and
value of the firm after pays is
value of the firm = current profits ( 1+annual rate ) ÷ ( opportunity cost - annual rate ) ................2
value of the firm = [tex]\frac{400000*(1+0.04)}{0.06-0.04}[/tex]
value of the firm = 20.80 million
