Question 1

The Brigapenski Co. has just paid a cash dividend of $2 per share. Investors
require a 16 percent return from investments. What would the stock sell for today
if the dividend was expected to grow at 20 percent per year for the next three years
and then settle down to 8 percent per year, indefinitely?

Answer
The last dividend was $2 per share k= 16%
Years growth rate
1-3 20%
4 and so 8%
First, the dividend in 4 years will be...

D1= D0 (1+g) = 2(1+0.20) = 2.4


D2 = D1 (1+g) = 2.4(1+0.20) = 2.88
D3 = D2 (1+g) = 2.88(1 +0.20) = 3.456
D4 = D3 (1+g) =3.456(1+0.08) = 3.73248

Present value of 4 years will be...

Pv = 8.483
V3 = D4
k-g
= 3.73248
0.16-0.08
V = 46.656
Selling price?

D1 + D2 + D3 + FV
(1+K)1 (1+K)2 (1+K)3 (1+k)3

SP = 2.4 + 2.88 + 3.456 + 46.656

(1+0.16) (1+0.16) (1+0.16) (1+0.16)3

Selling price of this stock = 36.31

Question 2
You are planning to buy shares of XYZ. XYZ’s most recent annual dividend was $5
per share. The next dividend will be paid in exactly one year. Analysts expect
dividends to grow at a rate of 10% per year for three years (up to and including
the t=3 dividend). Thereafter, dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 5% per
year into the indefinite future. The required rate of return on XYZ’s stock is 12%.
Calculate the value of XYZ stock using the two-stage dividend discount model.

Answer
value of XYZ stock using the two-stage dividend discount model
D0 = $5 K = 12%
Years growth rate
1-3 10%
4 so on 5%

V= D1
kg

D1= D0 (1+g) = 5(1+0.1)= 5.5


D2 = D1 (1+g) = 5.5(1+0.1) = 6.05
D3 = D2 (1+g) = 6.05(1 +0.1) = 6.655
D4 = D3 (1+g) =6.655(1+0.05) = 6.987

Pv = D1 + D2 + D3 + TV
(1+K)1 (1+K)2 (1+K)3 (1+k)3
Pv = 5.5 + 6.05 + 6.655 + 99.825
(1+0.12)1 (1+0.12)2 (1+0.12)3 (1+0.12)3

4.9 + 4.82 + 4.73 + 71.053


Pv = 85.503

TV at year 3 = D4 = 6.98 = 99.825


R-g 0.120.05

Question 3
Thirsty Cactus Corp. just paid a dividend of $1.25 per share. The dividends are
expected to grow at 28 percent for the next eight years and then level off to a 6
percent growth rate indefinitely. If the required return is 13 percent, what is the
price of the stock today by using the two-stage dividend growth model?

Answer
We can use the two-stage dividend growth model for this , which is:

D0 = 1.25 per share


K= 13%
Years growth rate
1-8 28%
9 so on 6%

D1= D0 (1+g)= 1.25(1.28)=1.6


D2 = D1 (1+g) =1.6(1.28) = 2.048
D3 = D2 (1+g) = 2.048(1.28)= 2.62
D4 = D3 (1+g) = 2.62(1.28)= 3.35
D5 = D4 (1+g) = 3.35(1.28)= 4.28
D6= D5 (1+g) = 4.28(1.28)= 5.48
D7 = D6 (1+g) = 5.48(1.28)= 7.01
D8= D7(1+g)= 7.011(1.28)=8.97
D9 = D8(1+g)= 8.97(1.06)=9.5082

TV8 = D9
K-G

= 9.508
13%6%

TV8 = 135.82
