Answer:

P6 = $8.918626 rounded off to $8.92

Explanation:

The DDM will be used to calculate the price of the stock. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under this model is,

P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)

Where,

  • g is the constant growth rate
  • D0 is the dividend paid today or most recently
  • r is the required rate of return

As we use D0 * (1+g) or D1 to calculate the value of the stock today (P0), we will use D7 to calculate the value of the stock 6 years from now.

D7 = 0.4 * (1+0.07)^6 * (1+0.04)

D7 = $0.6243038264

P6 = 0.6243038264 / (0.11 - 0.04)

P6 = $8.918626 rounded off to $8.92
