Answer:
-9.92%
Explanation:
P₀ = Div₁ / (Re - g)
- Div₁ = next year's expected dividend = $1.12 x (1 - 11.5%) = $0.9912
- Re = cost of equity = ?
- P₀ = current stock price = $62.91
- g = dividend's growth rate = -11.5%
Re = (Div₁ / P₀) + g
Re = ($0.9912 / $62.91) - 11.5%
Re = 1.58% - 11.5% = -9.92%
Since the cost of equity or required rate of return cannot be negative, I suppose that investors are not worried about Abbott distributing dividends, instead, they prefer that the company reinvests earnings in new projects.
