Explanation:
6.29% is the rate of growth
<u>Explanation:</u>
<u>The following formula is used
</u>
Price = D1 / ke -g
39.86 = 1.2 multiply with (1 + g) / 0.095 - g
3.7867 – 39.86 g = 1.2 + 1.2 g
2.5867 = 41.06 g
Now, we have to calculate the value of g
g = 2.5867 divide 41.06
= 0.0629
= 6.29 %
Where:
G = growth, ke = market rate of return, D1 = dividend ( annual), P = price of the share of company
