Explanation / Answer

1.Money needed to buy 200 shares of Pfizer, Inc. (PFE) = (200 shares * $31.40) + $7.95 = $6287.95

2.Money received after selling 200 shares of Nokia Corporation (NOK) = (200 shares * $20.13) - $140 = $3886

3. Money costed to buy shares : Since buy order is placed therefore ask quotes will be applicable = 500 shares * $3.96 = $1980

4. Since limit is placed on sell order of $4.65, trade will be executed only when the price is $4.65

Therefore,money received from the buyer = 200 shares * $4.65 = $930

5.Annual dividend = $3.55

Required return = 6.7%

Therefore, Value of the stock = (3.55*100)/6.7 = $52.99

6. EPS = $1.56

P/E ratio = 32.48

Therefore, stock price = P/E ratio * EPS = 32.48*1.56 = $50.67
