Question

Stoneheart Group is expected to pay a dividend of $3.23 next year. The company's dividend growth rate is expected to be 3.6 percent indefinitely and investors require a return of 12 percent on the company's stock. What is the stock price?

Answer 1

$38.45

Explanation:

Data provided

Next year dividend = $3.23

Required rate of return = $12%

Growth rate = 3.6%

The solution of the stock price is shown below:-

Stock price = Next year dividend ÷ (Required rate of return - Growth rate)

= $3.23 ÷ (12% - 3.6%)

= $38.45

So, we have solved the stock price with the help of above formula.
