Write out the formula for the constant growth dividend valuation model. What key assumptions are required?
You are interested in buying a share that paid its last annual dividend 9 months ago. You can assume that the next dividend payment (3 months from today) will be €1.50. The company anticipates that dividend growth rates will be 5% annually for the next two dividends and 2% thereafter. Assuming the firm’s cost of equity rE is 9%, how much should you pay for the share?
