Answer:

C. All else being equal, the growth rate of the dividends is greater than 2%

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the fair price of a stock with a constant growth in dividends is as follows,

  • P = D1 / r-g
  • Where D1 is the dividend next period
  • r is the required rate of return
  • g is the growth rate in dividends
  • P = 1.5 / 0.1 - 0.02 = 18.75
  • We are taking 1.5 as D1 as it is the dividend per share DeepMind will pay next year.

So, we will be willing to pay more than 18.75 if the fair price per share today is greater than 18.75. We check all the 3 options.

A. say the required rate is 10.1%

  • P = 1.5 / (0.101 - 0.02) = 18.52
  • So if the required rate of return increases from 10%, the fair price per share is falling and we will be willing to pay less than 18.75 per share.

B. P = 1.2 / (0.1 - 0.02) = 15

  • If D1 = 1.2,the fair price per share will be 15 which is less so we will not be willing to pay more than 15 for such share.

C. Say the growth rate in dividends is 2.1%

  • P = 1.5 / (0.1 - 0.021) = 18.99
  • The fair price per share increased to 18.99 if the growth rate in dividend increases by 0.1 percentage point. Thus, C is the correct answer

A free market exists
Vaselesa [24]
<span>A free market exists when the government places few restrictions on how a good or a service can be produced or sold or on how a factor of production can be employed. A free market is an economic system where prices are decided on if there is unrestricted competition between privately owned businesses. Supply and demand are the main factors in a free market and there is little to no government control. </span>
