If the question stated that the dividend per share is $0.32, earning per share is $0.64 and the dividend growth is 5%. Cost of capital is 12%. how do we calculate the market price of the share. i can't find the formula in the BPP Textbooks.
and does difference in cost of capital and growth in dividend represent the dividend yield?

Market price of shares and dividend yield
13y ago#1You can use the dividend growth formula - it should be in the BPP book, because it is on the formula sheet that you get given in the exam!
The formula is that Po = Do(1+g)/(Re-g)
Dividend yield is latest dividend divided by market value (as a percentage). It does not relate to the cost of capital (although it does ignore the potential growth in dividends).
alright. thank you sir. :)
