Cerberus Undertakers, Inc. just paid an annual dividend of $1.34 and is expected to pay annual dividends of $1.96 and $2.56 per share the next two years, respectively. After that, the firm expects to maintain a constant dividend growth rate of 5.7 percent per year. What is the value of this stock today if the required return is 14.3 percent?

Explanation / Answer

Antonius and Cleo
Dividend after 1 year = D1*( 1+ growth) = 1.26 * ( 1+ 3.1%) = 1.29906
Current value of stock = D1/(Required return - Growth) = 1.29906/( 14.6% - 3.1%) = 11.296
Price of stock after 11years = D12/(Required return - Growth) = 1.26 *(1+3.1%)12 /(14.6%-3.1%) = 15.804

Cerberus Undertakers
Dividend after Year 1 (D1) = 1.96 , dividend adter year 2( D2) = 2.56
Dividend in Year 3 ( D3) = D2 * (1+growth rate ) = 2.56 * ( 1+ 5.7% ) = 2.70592
Required Rate (r) = 14.3%
Value of Stock = D1/(1+r) + D2/(1+r)2 + D3/(r-g) * ( 1/(1+r)2) = 1.96/(1+14.3%) + 2.56/(1+14.3%)2 + 2.70592/(14.3% - 5.7%) * 1/(1+14.3%)2 = 27.76

Best of Luck. God Bless
