    Company B is an unquoted shoe manufacturer it has also suffered in the recent recession but the directors are confident that the company is passed the worst and growth lies ahead

    Earnings are expected to be 12.5 million next year and expected to grow at 2% per annum

    dividends will be 5 million for each of the next three years and then expected to grow at 3% thereafter
    David Has located a similar listed company that has an Earnings yield of 12% and the cost of equity of 14% calculate the value of company using DVM
    Ans: MV= 5*annuity factor for 3 years+value of growing perpetuity * 3 year simple discount factor
    (Please explain y annuity factor and discount factor is used)

    As always, the MV is the PV of the future dividends discounted at the shareholders required rate of return.

    Given that there is a constant divided of 5M per year from years 1 to 3, we discount this flows by multiplying by the 3 year annuity factor at 14%.

    From years 4 through to infinity there is a dividend of 5M per year growing at 3% per annum, and therefore to get the PV we use the dividend growth formula. However the formula gives a PV now (time 0) when the first dividend is in 1 years time. Here, the first growing dividend is in 4 years time (which is 3 years later than in 1 years time) and therefore the answer from the formula is giving a PV 3 years later (so at time 3 instead of at time 0). Therefore we need to discount the answer for 3 years at 14% to get the PV.

    I do work through similar examples explaining this in my free lectures on the valuation of securities. The lectures are a complete free course for Paper FM and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.

    Company B: B is an unquoted shoe manufacturer. It has also suffered in the recent recession but the directors are confident that the company is past the worst and growth lies ahead:

    – Earnings are expected to be 12.5 million € next year and expected to grow at 2% p.a.

    – Dividends will be 5 million € for each of the next three years and then expected to grow at 3% thereafter.

    Daniels has located a similar listed company that has an earnings yield of 12% and a cost of equity of 14%.
    Calculate the value of Company B using the dividend valuation model:

    Select one:

    a.
    42.3 m €

    b.
    43.2 m €

    c.
    46.8 m €

    d.
    47.3 m €

    Please do not simply type out a full question and expect to be provided with a full answer. You must have an answer in the same book in which you found the question, so ask about whatever it is in the answer that you are not clear about and I will explain.

    I have already explained in my answer to Huda131 how we solve this question (and as I wrote in the reply I work through similar examples in my free lectures).
