7. Kraft Company expects to give a dividend of $2 next year. Dvidend increases by 4 per cent require a 12% return. What will be
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

$28.125

Explanation:

Dividend D1= $2

(Dividend is given at the end of 1 year)

Growth g= 4% or 0.04

Required Return r = 12% or 0.12

Step1- Share price of company A today

As per Dividend Growth Model

Share price =Expected dividend/(required return - growth rate)

S0 = Do(1+g) / (r-g)

S0 = D1/(r-g)

S0 = 2/(0.12-0.04)

S0 = $25

Therefore share price of company A today for given details will be $25

Step2 - Expected dividend at the end of 3 years

D4=D0(1+g)^4

( as we already have D1 which is one time growth multiplied, therefore to find dividend at the end of 3rd year we will multiply 1 Less growth multiplier to D1)

D4= D1(1+g)^3

D4 = 2(1+0.04)^3

D4 = $2.25

Step3 - Share price of company A in 3 year

Share price =Expected dividend/(required return - growth rate)

S3 = D4/(r-g)

S3 = 2.25/(0.12-0.04)

S3 = $28.125

Therefore share price of company A in 3 years for given details will be $28.125
