PV of remaining dividends in 5 year = D5 x (1+g)/(Ke-g))
PV of remaining dividends in 5 year = 2.49(1+0.061)/(0.081-0.061)
PV of remaining dividends in 5 year = $132.0945
Given that g=6.1%, ke=8.1%
PV of remaining dividends in year = 0 = PV of the remaining dividends in year 5* 1/(1+0.081)^5
= 132.0945 * 1/(1+0.081)^5
= $89.48624
As per dividend-discount model, Colgate stock should sell for today = PV of Dividends till 5th year + PV of Remaining Dividend at t=0
= $89.48624 + $8.3707
= $97.8531
