Question:

To illustrate how the geometric average and the arithmetic average of historical dividend growth can differ, consider the following dividends paid by the Joltin’ Joe Company:

2021: $2.20 2020: 2.00 2019: 1.80 2018: 2017: 2016: $2.00 1.50 1.50

Because the starting and ending dividend amounts are the same as they are in the Broadway Joe example, the geometric growth rate is still 8 percent.
