Amira Lee has been newly appointed as a financial analyst for Melati Investors Berhad.Being an analyst, she is given a task to provide recommendation whether to buy or not to buy the equity of Nestlè Malaysia Berhad.Amira’s consideration whether to buy Nestlè’s equity or not, was not quite straightforward task because she might have to look at more than one year financial statements and apply dividend discount model to value the equity.If she could not made her decision within a week, Melati Investors Berhad may lose the opportunity to buy equities of Nestle (i.e. larger and long-established companies that would have probably paid higher dividends) given that the closing date of trading the equities will be due in next seven days.
