High risk firms in danger of bankruptcy tend to have:
You just entered into a fully amortising home loan with a principal of $600,000, a variable interest rate of 4.25% pa and a term of 25 years.
Immediately after settling the loan, the variable interest rate suddenly falls to 4% pa! You can't believe your luck. Despite this, you plan to continue paying the same home loan payments as you did before. How long will it now take to pay off your home loan?
Assume that the lower interest rate was granted immediately and that rates were and are now again expected to remain constant. Round your answer up to the nearest whole month.

You are an equities analyst trying to value the equity of the Australian supermarket conglomerate Woolworths, with ticker WOW. In Australia, listed companies like Woolworths tend to pay dividends every 6 months. The payment around September is the final dividend and the payment around March is called the interim dividend. Both occur annually.
- Today is mid-November 2018.
- WOW's last final dividend of $0.50 was two months ago in mid-September 2018.
- WOW's last interim dividend of $0.43 was eight months ago in mid-March 2018.
- Judging by the dividend history and WOW's prospects, you judge that the growth rate in the dividends will be 3% pa forever.
- Assume that WOW's total cost of equity is 6.5% pa. All rates are quoted as nominal effective rates.
- The dividends are nominal cash flows and the inflation rate is 2.5% pa.
What should be the current share price of WOW?
