Answer:

D. The constant growth model cannot be used for a zero growth stock, where the dividend is expected to remain constant over time.

Explanation:

So, we evaluate each option.

a. We discount the dividends by the required rate of return. So incorrect.

b. The dividend yield is annual dividend per share divided by stick price per share. the 5% is the growth in dividend and not the actual dividend itself. So, incorrect.

c. The constant growth is appropriate for companies whose dividend patterns are stable. Startups have multiple stage growths and this option becomes incorrect as constant growth is not applicable.

d. A zero growth stock is one where dividend remains the same. So when there is no growth in dividend, the constant growth model becomes inapplicable. So, the statement is correct.

So, here we have our correct statement and all others are incorrect.

A reason for the weakness would be that the supply is higher than the demand of the currency which means that, as per the rules of supply and demand, the currency is trading at a lower price, i,e., it is weak.
