Show how to use the DDM to develop an earnings multiplier model and explain the factors in the DDM that affect a stock’s price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio.
Calculate and interpret P/E, P/BV, P/S, and P/CF.
The trailing P/E ratio is computed as the current stock price divided by the current or trailing 12-months’ EPS. On the other hand, the P/E ratio based on the infinite period dividend discount model is computed as (D/E) / (k – g).
If markets are in equilibrium, the price per share reflects the value determined by the constant growth dividend. Using the constant growth model the stock's value is ($2.40)(1.08) / 0.07 = $37.03;
The trailing P/E = 37.03 / 6 = 6.17. The DDM P/E is the dividend payout ratio divided by k-g = 0.4 / 0.07 = 5.71. Another way of computing DDM P/E is: Current Market Price/Expected 12-month earnings: 37.03/(6.00 x 1.08) = 5.71. (see p. 148)

Study Session 14-50-c
Explain the factors that affect the sensitivity of a company to the business cycle and the uses and limitations of industry and company descriptors such as “growth,” “defensive,” and “cyclical”.
B is correct. Non-cyclical companies produce goods or services for which demand remains relatively stable throughout the business cycle. The consumer staples sector exhibits relatively less economic sensitivity and thus tends to be over-weighted during economic slowdowns and when revenues and profits are expected to be under pressure.
