Old Economy Traders opened an account to short-sell 1,300 shares of Internet Dreams at $46 per share. The initial margin requirement was 50%. (The margin account pays no interest.) A year later, the price of Internet Dreams has risen from $46 to $59, and the stock has paid a dividend of $3.50 per share. a. What is the remaining margin in the account? (Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.)

Answer: $8450

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the total initial asset which will be the value of shares sold and the margin which will be:

= (1300 × $46) + (50% × 1300 × $46)

= $59800 + $29900

= $89700

We will then calculate total liability which will be:

= (1300 × $59) + (1300 × $3.50)

= $76700 + $4550

= $81250

The remaining margin will then be:

= $89700 - $81250

= $8450

Crane Sporting Goods expects to have earnings per share of $6 in the coming year. Rather than reinvest these earnings and grow, the firm plans to pay out all of its earnings as a dividend. With these expectations of no growth, Crane's current share price is $60 and the cost of equity capital is 10%. Suppose Crane could cut its divident payout rate to 75% for the foreseeable future and use the retained earnings to open new stores. The return on investment in these stores is expected to be 12%. if we assume that the risk of these new investments is the same as the risk of its existing investments, then the firm's equity cost of capital is unchanged. What effect would this new policy have on Crane's stock price
