Answer #1

1)

Price of stock = D1 / required rate - growth rate

Price of stock = 2.58 / 0.14 - 0.076

Price of stock = 2.58 / 0.064

Price of stock = $40.3125

It is NOT a good buy as stock is trading above intrinsic value.

2)

Price of stock today = D1 / Required rate - growth rate

Price of stock today = (3.12 * 1.087) / 0.2385 - 0.087

Price of stock today = 3.39144 / 0.1515

Price of stock today = $22.3857

Price after 3 years = $22.3857 (1 + 0.087)3

Price after 3 years = $22.3857 * 1.2843664

Price after 3 years = $28.75

3)

year 5 dividend = 3 * 1.08 = 3.24

Year 4 value = D5 / required rate - growth rate

Year 4 value = 3.24 / 0.225 - 0.08

Year 4 value = 3.24 / 0.145

Year 4 value = $22.34

Current value of stock = 5 / (1 + 0.225)1 + 6.25 / (1 + 0.225)2 + 4.75 / (1 + 0.225)3 + 3 / (1 + 0.225)4 + 22.34 / (1 + 0.225)4

Current value of stock = $22.08
