Value of stock is equal to the present value of all future dividends
Value of stock in 5 years = Dividend in Year 6/(Required return - growth rate)
= 2/(12%-3.5%)
= $23.53 per share
Value of stock today = 23.53/(1.12)^5
= $13.35 per share
b)Value of stock = 2.08(1.06)/(1.12) + 2.08(1.06)^2/(1.12)^2 + 2.08(1.06)^3/(1.12)^3 + 2.08(1.06)^4/(1.12)^4 + 2.08(1.06)^4(1.03)/(1.12)^4(12%-3%)
= $26.36 per share
Solution :
a.
D0 = D1 = D2 = D3 = D4 = D5 = 0
D6 = 2 ($)
g = 3.5% = 0.035 = constant for ever from year 6 onwards.
r = 12% = 0.12
=> 1 + r = 1.12
So,
P5 = D6/(r - g)
=> P5 = 2/(0.12 - 0.035) = 23.53 ($)
=> P0 = P5/(1 + r)^5 = 23.53/1.12^5 = 13.35 ($)
Hence,
Worth of the stock today = $13.35 (ANSWER)
b.
D0 = 2.08 ($)
g = 6% for 4 years
So,
D1 = 2.08*1.06 = 2.2048 ($)
D2 = 2.2048*1.06 = 2.3371 ($)
D3 = 2.3371*1.06 = 2.4773 ($)
D4 = 2.4773*1.06 = 2.6260 ($)
g = 3% from year 5 onwards = 0.03
D5 = 2.6260*1.03 = 2.7047 ($)
r = 12% = 0.12
=> 1 + r = 1.12
So,
P4 = D5/(r -g) = 2.7047/(0.12 - 0.06) = 45.08 ($)
P0 = D1/(1+r) + D2/(1+r)^2 + D3/(1+r)^3 + (D4 + P4)/(1+r)^4
= 2.2048/1.12 + 2.3371/1.12^2 + 2.4773/1.12^3 + (2.6260+45.08)/1.12^4
= 35.91 ($)
Hence,
Value of the stock today = $35.91 (ANSWER)
