Thirsty Cactus Corp. just paid a dividend of $1.50 per share. The dividends are expected to grow at 25 percent for the next 9 years and then level off to a 5 percent growth rate indefinitely. If the required return is 13 percent, what is the price of the stock today?

$143.40

Explanation:

The dividend for the next year =  

                                                   = $ 1.50 x (1 + 0.13)

                                                   = 1.50 x 1.30

                                                   = $ 1.95

The dividend in the second year = 1.95 x 1.30

                                                       = $ 2.54

Similarly, the dividend for the year 9 is =

                                                                = $ 15.91

The value of the stock at the end of year 9,

= $ 208.81

The present value factor

where, r = rate of interest = 13% = 0.13

            n = years (1 to 9)

So, the present value factor for the 2nd year is

                                                                              = 0.783147

Therefore, the price of the stock today is calculated as to be $ 143.40
