4: Assume that Goodman Industries’ stock has a required return of 13%. You will use this required return rate to discount the dividends calculated earlier. If you plan to buy the stock, hold it for 3 years, and then sell it for $27.05, what is the most you should pay for it?

Explanation / Answer

4. discounting rate is 13%

growth rate of dividend is taken at an average rate of 6.21% based on the average of past 6 years.

so,

dividend for 2014 is 1.73*1.0621 = 1.84

for 2015 is 1.84*1.0621 = 1.95

for 2016 is 1.95*1.0621 = 2.07

and if I buy the stock @ current price of $25.88 and plan to sell it @ $27.05 in 2016 the the price I should pay now is:

present value of all future inflow:

2014 $1.84*present value factor @13%(.88)= $1.64

2015 $1.95*.78 = $ 1.52

2016 $(2.07+27.05)*.69 = $20.09

The most i should pay for the stock is = 1.64+1.52+20.09 = $23.25
