The analyst estimates the β of Firm A to be 1.38 and estimates the dividend growth rate to be 4.14% forever. Firm A has 262.00 million shares outstanding. Firm B just paid a dividend of $1.75 per share. The analyst estimates the β of Firm B to be 0.79 and believes that dividends will grow at 2.61% forever. Firm B has 191.00 million shares outstanding.
