How much is the market actually paying per share for growth opportunitios?

Explanation / Answer

Ans 14

P0=(D1+P1)/(1+r)=115/1.08=106.48

Ans 15

P0=D/(K-g)=10/(0.08-0.05)=10/0.03=333.33

Ans 16

Price =EPS1/r+PVGO(present value of growth opportunities)

DIV1/(r-g)=Price1=10/0.03=333.33

15/0.08+PVGO=333.33

PVGO=145.83
