Using the Gordon Growth Model (a.k.a. Dividend Discount Model), the intrinsic value of a stock can be calculated, exclusive of current market conditions. In this model, the value of the stock is equated to the present value of the stock's future dividends.
<span>Value of stock (P0) = D1 / (k - g)
</span>where
D1<span> = </span><span>expected annual </span>dividend<span> per share in the following year </span>
<span>k = the investor's discount rate or required </span>rate of return
g = the expected dividend growth rate
<u>From the problem:</u>
The value of stock is $10.80
D1 is $0.40
g is 0.08
k is unknown
Solution:
Rearranging the equation for Gordon Growth Model to solve for k:
k = (D1/P0) + g
Substituting the variables with the given values,
k = (0.40/10.80) + 0.08
k = 0.1170
In percent form, this is
0.1170 * 100% = 11.70%.
Thus, the total rate of return on the stock is 11.70%.
Answer:
Quarterly dividend (D) = $0.75
Annual return (Ke) = 10.5% = 0.105
Quarterly return = 0.105/4 = 0.02625
Current market price = <u>Quarterly dividend</u>
Quarterly return
=<u> $0.75</u>
0.02625
= $28.57
Explanation:
Current market price is the ratio of quarterly dividend paid divided by quarterly return.
