Based on the Constant Dividend Growth Model, what is the expected dividend yield for the stock for the coming year? Answer as a percentage, 2 decimal places (e.g., 12.34% as 12.34).
Last dividend | $ 9.53 | ||
Rate of return | 8.88% | ||
Growth Rate | 5.38% | ||
Share price today | =last dividend *(1+Growth rate)/(Rate of return-Growth Rate) | ||
Share price today | =9.53*(1+0.0538)/(0.0888-0.0538) | ||
Share price today | $ 286.93 | ||
Next dividend= | 9.53*(1+5.38%) | ||
Next dividend= | $ 10.04 | ||
Dividend yield= | 10.04/286.93 | ||
Dividend yield= | 3.50% |
