    A company has just paid a dividend of $0.23 per share.
    shareholders are expecting the dividend to remain at $0.23 per share next year, but to increase at an average rate of 3% per annum thereafter.
    shareholder required rate of return is 12%,and the rate of corporation tax is 25%.

    what will be the current market value per share (to the nearest cent)?

    A) $2.71
    B) $2.33
    C) $2.63
    D) $2.56

    (Pleas sir solve this calculation)

    You really should watch our free lectures!

    Po = Do (1+g) / (re – g)

    In fact, the Do(1+g) is the dividend in 1 years time which in this question is 0.23

    Therefore Po = 0.23 / (0.12 – 0.03) = $2.56

    The current dividend (Do) is not 0.23.
    It is 0.23 in one years time.

    Please read the question, and my previous reply again because I do explain this 🙂
