- The value of an asset is the present value of the expected returns from the asset during theholding period. An investment will provide a stream of returns during this period, and it isnecessary to discount this stream of returns at an appropriate rate to determine the asset’spresent value. A dividend valuation model such as the following is frequent. where:Pi = the current price of Common Stock iD1 = the expected dividend in Period 1ki = the required rate of return on Stock igi = the expected constant-growth rate of dividends for Stock iA. Identify the three factors that must be estimated for any valuation model, and explain whythese estimates are more difficult to derive for common stocks than for bonds.B.

When using a constant growth model to analyze a stock, if an increase in the required rate of return occurs while the growth rate remains the same, this will lead to a decreased value of the stock 3.
