You are considering purchasing stock in Canyon Echo. You feel the company will increase its dividend at 4.3 percent indefinitely. The company just paid a dividend of $3.26 and you feel that the required return on the stock is 10.5 percent. What is the price per share of the company's stock

Respuesta :

Answer: $54.84

Explanation:

Here, the price per share will be calculated as per the constant growth formula :  Price = (Dividend x (1+growth rate)) ÷ (return rate - growth rate)

Dividend $3.26 , growth rate = 4.3%=0.043 , return rate = 0.105

[tex]\text{Price}=\dfrac{3.26\times(1+0.043)}{0.105-0.043}\\\\=\dfrac{3.26\times(1.043)}{0.062}\\\\=\dfrac{3.40018}{0.062}\approx\ \$54.84[/tex]

Hence, the price per share of the company's stock = $54.84
