    Hi

    I am really struggling in business valuation chapter, how do I find issue price If the cost of equity is given? By using DVM
    In question ke is 14%
    And answer says, Fair MC = lv of future dividend ms discounted at ke14%
    Divined next year is = 0.14m expected growth is 4%
    0.14m/(0.14-0.04)

    Are you watching the free lectures working through the chapters (because it is pointless using the notes without watching the lectures that go with them).

    With regard to the first question, you are not asked to find the issue price. You are asked to find the current market value and for that we use the dividend valuation formula.

    With regard to your second question, the approaches are the same for unlisted companies although as I explain in my lectures when using a PE ratio valuation we use a lower PE ratio because of the shares not being as easily tradeable.
