A firm has an issue of preferred stock outstanding that pays a $5 dividend every year, in perpetuity. if this issue currently sells for $84.12 per share, what is the required return?

Respuesta :

The required return is $5.94%

How do we find the Required return?

 The per-share value is thus given by

[tex]P_{0}[/tex] =[tex]\frac{D}{R}[/tex]

where R is the required return

Given that,

preferred stock = $5

currently sells = $84.12 per share

To find the required return,

R= [tex]\frac{D}{p_{0} } }[/tex]

R=$5 / $84.12

R= .0594 = 5.94%

We can determine a value for the stock under a few very helpful special circumstances. What we need to do is make some generalizations about the dividend growth rate, or the pattern of future dividends.
