Question

The next dividend payment by Im, Incorporated, will be $1.87 per share. The dividends are anticipated to maintain a growth rate of 4.3 percent forever. If the stock currently sells for $37 per share, what is the required return

Answer 1

The answer is 9.35%.

The required rate of return (RRR) is the minimal return an investor would accept for owning a company's shares in exchange for a certain amount of risk. In corporate finance, the RRR is used to assess the profitability of proposed investment projects.

The RRR is a subjective minimal rate of return; this implies that a retiree will have a lower risk tolerance and hence accept a lesser return than a fresh college graduate with a larger stomach for risk.

Required return=(D1/Current price)+Growth rate

                        =(1.87/37)+0.043

                        =0.0505405405+0.043

                        =9.35% (Approx)

Hence, the required rate of return is 9.35%.
