affect the value of the stock

 Is the value of this stock dependent on how long you plan to hold it? In other words, if your planned holding period were 2 years or 5 years rather than 3 years, would this affect the value of the stock today, P0? Explain your answer.

I. No. The value of the stock is not dependent upon the holding period. The value calculated in Parts a through d is the value for a 3-year holding period. It is equal to the value calculated in Part e. Any other holding period would produce the same value of P0.
II. Yes. The value of the stock is dependent upon the holding period. The value calculated in Parts a through d is the value for a 3-year holding period. It is not equal to the value calculated in Part e. Any other holding period would produce a different value of P0.
III. Yes. The value of the stock is dependent upon the holding period due to the fact that the value is determined as the present value of all future expected dividends.
IV. No. The value of the stock is not dependent upon the holding period unless the growth rate remains constant for the foreseeable future.
V. Yes. The value of the stock is dependent upon the holding period as long as the growth rate remains constant for the foreseeable future
