Burnett Corp. pays a constant $8.25 dividend on its stock. The company will maintain this dividend for the next 13 years and will then cease paying dividends forever. If the required return on this stock is 11.2 percent, what is the current share price

Respuesta :

Answer:

$55.134

Explanation:

Given

dividend paid on its stock = $8.25

Duration is next 13 years

P0 = dividend on its stock × (PVIFA of return on this stock,years)

Remember PVIF = (1 - (1 + r)^-n)/r

Where PVIFA = present value interest factor of annuity

r = interest rate per period

n = number of periods

Therefore

P0 = $8.25 × (PVIFA11.2%,13)

P0 = $55.134

Answer:

$54.99

Explanation:

D = $8.25

R = 11.25

n =13

Perpetuity Formula is to be used

P0 = sum of discounted dividends

      =D/1+r ^n     =8.25/(1.1125)^1+8.25/(1.1125)^2+8.25/(1.1125)^3+8.25/(1.1125)^4+8.25/(1.1125)^5+8.25/(1.1125)^6+8.25/(1.1125)^7+8.25/(1.1125)^8+8.25/(1.1125)^9+8.25/(1.1125)^10+8.25/(1.1125)^11+8.25/(1.1125)^12+8.25/(1.1125)^13

      =$54.99
