Need Help w This Kaplan Question
Question is below. I thought the answer was warrants becasue they don't pay divs but Q bank says the answer is Preferred stock. I dont get the explanation given.
Among the popular methods of valuing equity securities is the dividend growth model. One could expect to see an analyst using the issue's dividends this to value any of these except
A) common stock.
B) warrants.
C) preferred stock.
D) ADRs representing common stock in a foreign company.
Explanation
In order to use the dividend growth model, there must be a possibility of dividend growth. Because preferred stock dividends are fixed, this tool would not make any sense. Furthermore, this model deals with dividends and warrants do not pay any dividends.
