Explanation:

Brothers Grimm corporation is responsible for the manufacturing of gingerbread houses. During a one year period, they are expected to pay a dividend of $5 and to sell each shares for $100. The share value for different safe interests is calculated as follows

a) If the safe interest is 5%, then the share value for today is

= ( 5+100)/( 1+5/100)

= 105/ ( 1+0.05)

= 105/1.05

= $100.00

b) If the safe interest is 10%, the share value for today would be

= (5+100)/(1+10/100)

= 105/( 1+0.1)

= 105/1.1

= 95.454

= $95.45( to 2 decimal places)

c) If the safe interest is 5% and the risk premium is 3%, then the share value for today is

= (5+100)/(1+(5+3)/100)

= 105/( 1+8/100)

= 105/(1+0.08)

= 105/1.08

= $97.222

= $97.22 (to 2 decimal places)

d) Since Grimm is not expected to pay dividend, the share values for each safe interest can be calculated as follows:

i) If the safe interest is 5% and there is no payment of dividend, then the share value for today is

= 100/( 1+5/100)

= 100/( 1+0.05)

= 100/1.05

= $95.238

= $95.24 ( to 2 decimal places)

ii) If the safe interest is 10% and there is no payment of dividend, then the share value for today is

= 100/( 1+10/100)

= 100/( 1+ 0.1)

= 100/1.1

= $90.909

= $90.91 ( to 2 decimal places)

iii) If the safe interest is 5% and the risk premium is 3% with no payment of dividend, the share value for today is calculated as

= 100/(1+8/100)

= 100/(1+0.08)

= 100/1.08

= $92.592

= $92.59 ( to 2 decimal places)
