An analyst produces the following series of annual dividend forecasts for company D: Expected dividend (end of) year t+1 = 10 euros; Expected dividend (end of) year t+2 = 20 euros; Expected dividend (end of) year t+3 = 10 euros. The analyst further expects that company D dividend will grow indefinitely at a rate of 2 percent after year t+3. Company D cost of equity equals 10 percent. Under these assumptions, calculate the analysts estimate of company D equity value at the end of year t.
Clinton Corporation is expected to pay a dividend of $3.50 next year and $5.50 the year after that.

Management has indicated that it plans to pay a $0.25 dividend 3 years from today, then to increase it at a relatively rapid rate for 2 years, and then to increase it at a constant rate of 8.00% thereafter. Management's forecast of the future dividend stream, along with the forecasted growth rates, is shown below. Assuming a required return of 11.00%, what is your estimate of the stock's current value? Use the dividend values provided in the table below for your calculations. Do not round your intermediate calculations.

2) a) The following information is given. The expected rate of return of the index in next year is 30%, current annual rate of return of T-Bills is %15. We consider a stock whose beta is 1.2. It is estimated that this firm will pay a dividend per share of 2 TL next year. Investors predict that dividends will grow at the constant rate of 15% in future years. Then what may be the fundamental price of that stock? b) Will you consider to buy that stock if its current market value is 12.4 TL per share? 3) In the problem above (question 2); let us assume that investors rather than predicting one growh rate of 15% ; predict two different growh rates. It is estimated that the dividends will grow at the rate of 10% in the next three years. Then the growth rate of dividends will accelerate to 20% starting in the fourth year and that growth rate will continue forever in the rest of future years. Given this; how the fundamental price of that stock changes ? (use the values of Question 2 in the…

You are valuing a stock. If you expect the dividend one-year from today (at t=1) to be $3.00 dividend, and you expect dividends to grow a rate of 30% each year for the following 10 years (t=2 to 11). After that, dividends are expected to grow at a constant 7%. What would you estimate the stock price to be if the required rate of return is 10%?
A firm's common stock has just paid a $3.00 dividend (Do), which is expected to grow at a constant rate of 6.0 percent each year. The beta of this stock is 1.30, the risk-free rate is 4.0 percent, and the expected return on the market is 10.0 percent.
