I know it could sound weird, but due the nature of the following formula, all future cash flows are brought 1 period before the first payment, in our case, if the first dividend is going to be paid in year 10, all the future cash flows of the share (future dividends) are going to be brought to year 9. The formula as follows.
Things should look like this
So the present Value (in year 9) is $228.31, but we need it in the present, therefore, we have to use another formula to bring this value to present value, given the required rate of return.
