Morton Forms is a proprietorship owned by Viola Morton. Ms. Morton's daughter, Linda, who works in the business, has calculated the net income for the business at $193,200. This was calculated using GAAP.
Included in the calculation of net income was a fee of $4,000 that was paid to Linda's 16 year old son for creating and maintaining a website for the company. In pricing the work, Viola found that it would cost at least $8,000 to obtain equivalent services from an outside consultant.
What effect would this have if any on calculating the minimum net income for Viola Morton's tax return for the year? (Essentially is this handled differently for tax purposes vs. accounting? Should it be deducted, added, or does it have no effect on net income for tax purposes?)

The Ship Corp. has paid annual dividends of $0.48, $0.60, and $0.62 a share over the past

dividend since its business has leveled off and sales are expected to remain relatively
constant. Given the lack of future growth, at what price will you only buy this stock if you
can earn at least a 14 percent rate of return?

A financial analyst has been following Biostar Inc., a new high-growth company. She
estimates that the current risk-free rate is 6.25 percent, the market risk premium is 5
percent, and that Biostar Inc beta is 1.75. The current earnings per share (EPS0) is $2.50.
The company has a 40 percent payout ratio. The analyst estimates that the company's
dividend will grow at a rate of 25 percent this year, 20 percent next year, and 15 percent
the following year. After three years the dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of
7 percent a year. The company is expected to maintain its current payout ratio. The analyst
believes that the stock is fairly priced. What is the current price of the stock?
