Question 4

You are offered three stocks at various prices, but aren’t sure if the prices are reasonable. So you decide to determine the fair price of each given some additional information you found.

Stock Name          t=1 Dividend       Initial Growth                                            Later Growth

Pie                              $4.50                3.5%                                                     3.5% forever

Row                            $8.50                None (flat)                                          Still flat at $8.50 forever

Sigmah                     $3.70             12% annually for next 10 years             Flat thereafter (DIV12+=DIV11) forever

Your assumed discount rate is 9%. What is the price of each stock?

Explanation / Answer

Fair price of Stock Pie = $4.50 * (1 + 3.5%) / (9% - 3.5%)

= $84.68

Fair price of Stock Row = $8.50 / 9%

= $94.44

Fair price of Stock Sigma = $3.70 * (1 + 12%) / (1 + 9%) + $3.70 * (1 + 12%)2 / (1 + 9%)2 + $3.70 * (1 + 12%)3 / (1 + 9%)3 + $3.70 * (1 + 12%)4 / (1 + 9%)4 + $3.70 * (1 + 12%)5 / (1 + 9%)5 + $3.70 * (1 + 12%)6 / (1 + 9%)6 + $3.70 * (1 + 12%)7 / (1 + 9%)7 + $3.70 * (1 + 12%)8 / (1 + 9%)8 + $3.70 * (1 + 12%)9 / (1 + 9%)9 + $3.70 * (1 + 12%)10 / (1 + 9%)10 + $3.70 * (1 + 12%)3 / [(1 + 9%)3 * 9%]

= $97.02

= $81.82
