A stock is expected to pay $0.70 per share every year indefinitely. If the current price of the stock is $18.90, and the equity cost of capital for the company that released the shares is 7.9%, what price would an investor be expected to pay per share five years into the future

Respuesta :

Answer:

$32.72

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the price an investor would be expected to pay per share in the next five years.

We proceed as follows to calculate this.

Dividend = $0.70

Share price = $18.90

Hence = Dividend / Share price

= 0.70 / 18.90

= 0.037037

Cost of Equity = 7.9%

Expected growth = 0.037037 + 0.079

= 0.116037

Add one to it = 1 + 0.116037

= 1.116037

Share price after 5 year = $18.90 * (1.116037)^5 = $32.7231
