I cannot understand why on earth you would want to discount anything.
The question requires the gearing to be calculated at the end of each year to see whether or not the covenant has been breached.

You would be very wrong to discount the dividends at the WACC.
The dividend growth model values shares based on the expected future dividends and the shareholders required rate of return (Re) – always!!
