Question
4) Suppose stock AAA pays an annual dividend of $2. Shareholders require a rate of return of
12% annually on the stock.
a) Use the DDM model to find the price of the stock.
b) Suppose the firm just paid a dividend of $2 but it is expected that the dividend rate will
grow at a fixed rate such that next year's dividend will be $2.20. What will the dividend
payments be over the next 3 years?
c) With the growth rate as described in part b), calculate the price of a single share of the
stock.
d) Now suppose you hear from an well known analyst that even though the firm just paid a $2
dividend, the firm is expected to have supernormal growth rate of 20% over the next 5
years. After that, growth will level off to 10% per year. Over these 5 years, the firm plans to
take on massive amounts of debt. So the discount rate investors should use is 15% over
those supernormal growth years. After that the discount rate should revert to 12%.
Calculate the price of a share of stock.
