The <em>price</em> of a <em>stock</em> can be modeled by the present value of the stream of future <em>dividends</em> discounted at a rate equal to the<em> return expected</em>.
The equation, when the dividends are expected to <em>grow</em> at a constant rate, less than the return rate is:
Where:
- Price₀ is the <em>current price</em>: $44.12
- Div₁ is the <em>dividend </em>to be paid a year from now: $0.46 × 1.145 = $0.53
- g is the expected constant <em>growth rate</em>: 14.5% = 0.145
- r is the <em>expected return</em>
Then, you can solve for r:
