 And which book or notes?September 15, 2011 at 7:08 pm #88167BPP Kit question #2 September 15, 2011 at 8:13 pm #88168I don’t have that kit and haven’t covered the topic yet. 
 Still what seems here is that you have to find the value of dividend while allowing for inflation.
 So, the answer below might be wrong but you can take it as a suggestion
 Taking 2000 as a base year:-Year Calculation. Actual dividend Actual Growth 
 2000 1.7*100/100 1.70 00%
 2001 2.2*100/105 2.10 23.5%
 2002 2.2*100/110 2.00 -4.76%
 2003 2.3*100/113 2.04 2%
 2004 2.8*100/117 2.40 17.64%September 15, 2011 at 8:18 pm #88169Year; Calculation. =Actual dividend ••••••Actual Growth 
 2000; 1.7*100/100 =1.70 •••••••••••••••••••••00%
 2001; 2.2*100/105= 2.10•••••••••••••••••••••• 23.5%
 2002; 2.2*100/110= 2.00 ••••••••••••••••••••••-4.76%
 2003; 2.3*100/113 =2.04 ••••••••••••••••••••••2%
 2004; 2.8*100/117= 2.40 ••••••••••••••••••••••17.64%September 15, 2011 at 9:02 pm #88170Yes, those are correct..as I glance through it. I did not have a base year, I was using the years such as 2001; 100/105 *2.2 =2.1 
 2002; 105/110*2.2 = 2.1 etc. so I was getting it wrong..Thank u..I haven’t covered the topic either, but still trying to work the kit September 15, 2011 at 10:39 pm #88171That’s good news. Any ways you r welcome! May 17, 2014 at 11:40 am #169180Anonymous Inactive- Topics: 0
