2. Using data from part a, what would the Gordon (constant growth) model value be if the required rate of return was 15% and the expected growth rate was (1) 15% or (2) 20%? Are these reasonable results?
   1. These results show that the formula does not make sense if the expected growth rate is equal to or less than the required rate of return.
   2. These results show that the formula does not make sense if the required rate of return is equal to or less than the expected growth rate.
   3. These results show that the formula does not make sense if the required rate of return is equal to or greater than the expected growth rate.
