1.What is the company’s current stock price, P0?
2. What is the company’s expected stock price in 6 years (what is P6)?
Current dividend paid=$0.98
required rate of return=9.4%
Dividend Growth rate=8.17%
As we know the formula for find out stock price
Kce=D1/P0+g
Here Kce=required rate of retuen ((hurdle rate in this case)
D1=nex year's dividend
g= dividend growth
puttin the values in the formula and solving:
0.094=0.98*(1+.0817)/P0+0.0817
P0=0.98*(1+0.0817)/(0.094-0.0817)=$8.618423
b) Price of stock after 6 years
0.094=0.98*(1+.0817)^7/P0+0.0817
P0=0.98*(1+0.0817)/(0.094-0.0817)=$13.80603
