Computech Corporation is expanding rapidly and currently needs to retain all of its earnings; hence, it does not pay dividends.

However, investors expect Computech to begin paying dividends, beginning with a dividend of $1.00 coming 3 years from today. The dividend should grow rapidly - at a rate of 17% per year - during Years 4 and 5, but after Year 5, growth should be a constant 7% per year. If the required return on Computech is 16%, what is the value of the stock today

Answer:

$9.687

Explanation:

Given:

Year 3 dividend = $1.00

Year4&5 growth rate = 17%

Constant rate = 7%

Required return rate = 16%

Year 4 dividend wil be:

D4 = 1.00 * 1+growth rate

= 1.00 * (1+0.17)

= $1.17

Year 5 dividend=

D5 = $1.17 * (1+0.17)

= $1.3689

Value of stock after year 5 will be given as:

\frac{D5 * (1+growth rate)}{required return - growth rate}

= \frac{1.3689*(1+0.07)}{0.16-0.07}

= $16.2747

For the current value of stock, we have:

Cv= Fd* Pv of discounting factor

Where Cv = current value of stock

Fd = future dividend

Pv = Present value of discounting factor

Therefore,

C_v = \frac{1.00}{1.16^3} + \frac{1.17}{1.16^4} + \frac{1.3689}{1.16^5} + \frac{16.2746}{1.16^5}

=$9.6871382455

≈ $9.687

The value of stock today =

$9.687

Equity  common share a $134,047 $152,502

Common share outstanding b 5,126.201 694.783

Book value per common share a ÷ b $26.15 $219.50

Market price per share a $154.12 $1046.4

Basic EPS b 9.26754 18.26999

Price earning ratio a ÷ b 16.63 57.27

5) A higher PE ration indicates that investors want to pay a higher share price because of growth expectation in near by future
