Construct the time line, showing dividends of the company.
If the required rate of return for the stock is 12%, calculate its price.
D0 = $0.40 per share
D1 = D0 * 1.25 = $0.5
D2 = D1 * 1.25 = $0.625
D3 = D2 * 1.25 = $0.78125
D4 = D3 * 1.25 = $0.9765625
D5 = D4 * 1.08 = $1.0546875
Terminal Value of Dividends from Year 5 onwards = D5/(0.12 - 0.08) = $26.3671875
Price = PV(D1) + PV(D2) + PV(D3) + PV(D4) + PV(TV)
= 0.5/(1.12) + 0.625/(1.12)2 + 0.78125/(1.12)3 + 0.9765625/(1.12)4 + 26.3671875/(1.12)4 = $18.88
