**Problem 9: Valuing Future Dividends of XYZ Inc.**

XYZ Inc. expects the following dividend payments:
- $10 dividends next year (Year 1)
- No dividends in Year 2
- $30 dividends three years from now (Year 3)

After Year 3, XYZ Inc. will pay dividends annually, growing at a rate of 10% per year. For example, in Year 4, the dividend will be $33.

**Question:**
What should be today’s stock price if the expected stock return is 15%?

---

**Solution Approach:**
To determine today's stock price, we need to discount the expected future dividends to their present value using the expected stock return rate of 15%. Here are the steps:

1. Calculate the present value (PV) of the dividends for Year 1 and Year 3.
2. Calculate the present value of the growing dividend starting from Year 4.

**Step-by-Step Calculation:**

1. **PV of dividends in Year 1:**
   - Dividend in Year 1: $10
   - PV = \( \frac{10}{(1 + 0.15)^1} \)

2. **PV of dividends in Year 3:**
   - Dividend in Year 3: $30
   - PV = \( \frac{30}{(1 + 0.15)^3} \)

3. **Value of growing perpetuity from Year 4:**
   - Dividend in Year 4: $33
   - Growth rate: 10%
   - The formula for a growing perpetuity: \( P = \frac{D}{r - g} \) where \( D \) is the dividend in Year 4, \( r \) is the discount rate, and \( g \) is the growth rate.
   - Value at the end of Year 3 = \( \frac{33}{0.15 - 0.10} \)
   - PV of this amount to today = \( \frac{\frac{33}{0.15 - 0.10}}{(1 + 0.15)^3} \)

Finally, sum all these present values to get today's stock price:

\[ PV_{\text{Year 1}} + PV_{\text{Year 3}} + PV_{\text{Perpetuity at Year 3}} \]

By evaluating these calculations, we can determine
