Most corporations pay quarterly dividends on their common stock rather than annual dividends. Barring any unusual circumstances during the year, the board raises, lowers, or maintains the current dividend once a year and then pays this dividend out in equal quarterly installments to its shareholders. a. Suppose a company currently pays an annual dividend of $4.00 on its common stock in a single annual installment, and management plans on raising this dividend by 5 percent per year indefinitely. If the required return on this stock is 15 percent, what is the current share price?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The DDM tells us that share price = D*(1+G)/R-G

Dividend = 4.00

G= 0.05

R= 0.15

Price = 4*(1.05)/0.15-0.05

Price= $42

Explanation:

We use the dividend discount method to estimate the current price. We use the growth rate and required return to figure out the current price by using the DDM formula.

a)  dividend growth model, is given as

Price = D1 / (r - g) = D0 x (1 + g) / (r - g)

D0=Dividend, $4

g=percentage increase of the dividend

r=return on stock

= 4 x 1.05 / (15% - 5%)
