A common stock just paid a dividend of $1. The dividend is expected to grow at 5% for 6 years, then it will grow at 4% for the next 4 years, and then it will grow at 3% forever. The discount rate is 12% in the first 8 years, and 10% afterwards.
D0 = $1
D1= $1.05
D2= $1.1025
D3= $1.1576
D4= $1.2155
D5= $1.2763
D6= $1.3401
D7= $1.3937
D8= $1.4494
D9= $1.5074
D10 = $1.5677
P10 = D11/ Re - g
= $1.5677 *1.03/ 0.1 - 0.03
= $23.0679
So, the present value of stock is :
= $1.05/1.12 + $1.1025/1.12^2 + $1.1576/1.12^3 + $1.2155/1.12^4 + $1.2763/1.12^5 + $1.3401/1.12^6+ $1.3937 /1.12^7+ $1.4494/1.12^8 + $1.5074/1.1^9 + ($1.5677 + $23.0679) /1.1^10
= $5.4464 + $10.1374
= $15.5838
= $15.58 ( rounded off to two decimal places)
