Explanation / Answer

1) dividends are

year 1 -> 1.9 * 1.04 = 1.976

year 2 -> 1.9 * 1.04^2 = 2.05504

year 3 -> 1.9 * 1.04^3 = 2.1372416


2) price = 1.9 * 1.04 / ( 0.12 - 0.04 ) = 24.7


3) stock price in 3 years is

2.1372416 * 1.04 / ( 0.12 - 0.04 ) = 27.7841408


4)


year 1)


Div = 1.976

selling price = 1.976 * 1.04 / ( 0.12 - 0.04 ) = 25.688

Total Flow = 25.688 + 1.976 = 27.664

PV = 27.664/ 1.12 = 24.7


year 2)

div = 2.05504

selling price = 2.05504 * 1.04 / ( 0.12 - 0.04 ) =26.71552

Total = 28.77056

PV = 28.77056/1.12^2 = 22.935714285714283


year 3 )

div = 2.172416

selling price = 2.172416 * 1.04 / ( 0.12 - 0.04 ) = 28.241408

total = 30.413824

PV = 30.413823 / 1.12^3 = 21.647959183673464
