Question

Suzi owns 100 shares of AB stock. She expects to receive a $238 in dividends next year. She also expects the stock to sell for $46 a share one year from now. What is the intrinsic value of this stock if the dividend payout ratio is 40% and the discount rate is 13.5%

Answer 1

Answer: $42.63

Explanation:

To calculate this we will add the present value of Future cash flows (dividends) to the present value of the stock.

Dividend per share one year from now is,

= 238/100

= $2.38

Stock Price a year from now = $46

Discount rate is $13.5%

PV of sum = 2.38/(1+0.135) + 46/ (1 + 0.135)

= 42.6255506608

= 42.63

$42.63 is the Intrinsic value of the stock.
