Sanders, Inc., paid a $4 dividend per share last year and is expected to continue to pay out 60% of its earnings as dividends for the foreseeable future.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct solution is "$42.94".

Explanation:

The given values are:

D0 = 4

Ks = 15%

As we know,

⇒ [tex]g = (1-Div \ payout \ ratio)\times ROE[/tex]

      [tex]=(1-60 \ percent)\times 13 \ percent[/tex]

      [tex]=5.20 \ percent[/tex]

By using the Gordon Model, we get

⇒ [tex]P0=Do\times \frac{(1+g)}{(Ks-g)}[/tex]

         [tex]=4\times \frac{ (1+5.20 \ percent)}{(15 \ percent-5.20 \ percent)}[/tex]

         [tex]=42.94[/tex] ($)
