One of the arguments that analysts use to justify the high stock valuations for technology firms is that they are very risky during their start-up years but become less risky as the technology becomes widely adopted. Consider trying to value a company called TechCorp on Jan 1. It pays dividends annually at midnight on Dec 31. The last dividend (yesterday) was $1. Dividends were expected to grow for two years at 10% and then settle down to a long-run growth rate of 5% in perpetuity. Because of the initial riskiness of the company, investors required a 20% rate of return over the first two years, but only a 12% rate of return thereafter. The time line of dividends is as follows. What is a fair price for TechCorp on Jan 1?

◦ $8.70
◦ $12.60
◦ $13.44
◦ $13.52
◦ $14.53

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
