In the last question in the lecture video, where the dividend if first constant for two years and then grows by 4% after. Why do we use the market value for the second year as part of the dividends to discount to get the value of the overall share? I thought it was only expected dividends we would use because 189c is not an expected dividend, it is the market value for year 2.
December 7, 2023 at 11:12 am #696327It says the 20c dividend in one year
it says 20c in the 2nd yearthen it would grow by 4% in year three onwards
yr / Div / Timing / Value
1 / 20 / 1 / 202 / 20 / 2 / 20
3 / 20(1.04) / 2 / 189
You are calculating the market value of a share that has had constant dividend for 2 years and the is expected to grow at 4% in perpetuity.
( 20* 1.04) / (0.15-0.04) = 189 from the beginning of year 3 onwards
Because it’s a delayed perpetuity you have to adjust by the PV factor for 15% in year 1 & 2yr / Div / Timing / pv / Value
1 / 20 / 1 /20 / 0.870 / = 17.42 / 20 / 2 /20 / 0.756 / = 15.1
3 /20(1.04) / 2 /189 / 0.756 / = 142.88
This gives a market value of $1.75
Otherwise, it would have been
MV(xd)
1/ 20.80 / 189.09
2 / 21.63 / 196.65
3 / 22.50 / 204.55But the dividend didn’t grow in year 1 or 2 so its not appropriate to do it this way
