Year | Previous year dividend | Dividend growth rate | Dividend current year | Horizon value | Total Value | Discount factor | Discounted value |
1 | 2.25 | 12.00% | 2.52 | 2.52 | 1.08 | 2.3333 | |
2 | 2.52 | 12.00% | 2.8224 | 2.8224 | 1.1664 | 2.41975 | |
3 | 2.8224 | 12.00% | 3.161088 | 3.161088 | 1.259712 | 2.50937 | |
4 | 3.161088 | 12.00% | 3.54041856 | 123.915 | 127.4554186 | 1.36048896 | 93.68354 |
Long term growth rate (given)= | 5.00% | Value of Stock = | Sum of discounted value = | 100.95 | |||
Where | |||||||
Current dividend =Previous year dividend*(1+growth rate)^corresponding year | |||||||
Total value = Dividend + horizon value (only for last year) | |||||||
Horizon value = Dividend Current year 4 *(1+long term growth rate)/( Required rate-long term growth rate) | |||||||
Discount factor=(1+ Required rate)^corresponding period | |||||||
Discounted value=total value/discount factor |
