Suppose that the last dividend, which the firm just paid on its stock, is Da = $1.00 and the stock's last closing price is $18.73. It is expected that earnings and dividends will grow at a constant rate of g = 3.50% per year and that the stock's price will grow at this same rate. Let us assume that the stock is fairly priced, that is, it is in equilibrium, and the most appropriate required rate of return is r, = 9.00%. A-Z The dividend received in period 1 is Di = $1.00 x (1 + 0.0350) = $1.04 and the estimated intrinsic value in the same period is based on the constant growth model: P = Using the same logic, compute the dividends, prices, and the present value of each of the dividends at the end of each period.
