Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
P = D1 / (r - g)
P=Current price or stock value
D1 = the value of next year's dividend= $1.5
r = the cost of equity capital=9%
g = the dividend growth rate=4%
The dividend discount model's formula is:
P = D1 / (r - g)
D1=1.5
g=4%=0.04
r=9%=0.09
Then,
P=1.5/(0.09-0.04)
P=1.5/0.05
P=$30
The value of the stock is $30
