Creme Bakery just paid an annual dividend of $2.20 a share and is expected to increase that amount by 2.2 percent per year. If you are planning to buy 1,000 shares of this stock next year, how much should you expect to pay per share if the market rate of return for this type of security is 14 percent at the time of your purchase?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$19.47

Explanation:

The computation of the price paid for share is shown below:

= Year second dividend ÷ (Required rate of return - growth rate)

where,

Next year dividend is

= $2.20 + $2.20 × 2.2%

= $2.20 + $0.0484

= $2.2484

In the year 2 , it is

= $2.2484 × 1.022

= $2.2978648

And, the required rate of return is 14%

Plus the growth rate is 2.2%

So, the price paid for the share is

= ( $2.2978648) ÷ (14% - 2.2%)

= $19.47
