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

The human body's pharmacokinetics are quite varied. Our hair holds onto drugs longer than our urine, blood, or saliva. For example, alcohol can be detected in the hair for up to 90 days after it was consumed. The same is true for marijuana, cocaine, ecstasy, heroin, methamphetamine, and nicotine.
