Dividends on CCN corporation are expected to grow at a 9% per year. Assume that the discount rate on CCN is 12% and that the expected dividend per share in one year is $0.50. CCN has just paid a dividend, so the next dividend is the $0.50 to be paid one year from now.

Calculate today's price per share fo CCN.

Answer 1

Today's share price for CCN is $16.67

Today's share price for CCN can be determined using the Gordon constant dividend growth model

The Gordon growth model is used to determine the value of the share of a firm using the value of its dividend with the assumption that the firm grows at a constant rate.

The formula of the Gordon constant dividend growth model :  

price = d1 / (r - g)

d1 = next dividend to be paid = $0.50

r = cost of equity = 12%

g = growth rate = 9%

0.50 / (12% - 9%)

0.50 / 3%

0.50 / 0.03

= $16.67
