Explanation / Answer

Answer to the first 4 parts: (rest put in separate question)

1) - Option D - A trading license is required to trade on the floor of the NYSE

2) Option C - Price of one share = (0.09*$100)/0.095 = $94.737

Cost of 10 shares = $94.737 × 10 = $947.37

3) Option D - Rate of return on the stock = Dividend of next year/Market price of share + Growth rate

= ($1.3 (1+0.03))/$25.4 + 0.03 = 8.27%.

4) Option - C - Market price of share = Dividend of next year/(required rate of return - Growth rate)

=> $31.4 = $2.5/(0.12 - g) => g = 0.0404 = 4.04%
