Answer:
The dividend growth rate is 3%
Explanation:
Given that:
- Dividend : $1.61 (D)
- Price: $14.43 (P)
- Market rate of return: 14% = 0.14 (r)
As we know that, the formula to find the price of a stock is:
- P = D / (r - g)
In this question, we have:
14.43 = 1.61 / (0.14 -g)
<=> 0.14 - g = 1.61 / 14.43
<=> g = 0.14 - 0.11
<=> g = 0.03 = 3%
So the dividend growth rate is 3%
Answer:
Growth rate = 2.56%
Explanation:
Using the divided growth model
P = D× (1+g)/(ke-g)
P- price of stock, g- annual growth rate, Do- last dividend paid, Ke- market return
Substituting, we have
14.43 = 1.61(1+g)/(0.14-g)
cross multiplying
=14.43× (0.14-g) = 1.61 + 1.61g
2.0202- 14.43g = 1.61 + 1.61g
2.0202 -1.61 = 1.61g + 14.43g
0.4102 =16.04g
g = 0.025573566 × 100
Growth rate = 2.56%
