    Value of Stock is $6.68

    Explanation:

    We need to calculate the present value of each dividend payment to arrive at the value of stock.

    Number Dividend PV factor PV of Dividend

    First $0.47 (1+14%) ^-1 = 0.8772 $0.41

    Second $0.52 (1+14%) ^-2 = 0.7695 $0.40

    Third $0.67 (1+14%) ^-3 = 0.6750 $0.45

    Forth $0.97 (1+14%) ^-4 = 0.5921 $0.57

    *Perpetuity$9.35 (1+14%) ^-5 = 0.5194 $4.85

    Total $6.68

    * Perpetuity

    After 4 year the dividend will be grow at a constant rate. So, it will be considered as the perpetuity and it value at year 5 will be calculated as follow

    Dividend Valuation method is used to value the stock price of a company based on the dividend paid, its growth rate and rate of return. The price is calculated by calculating present value of future dividend payment.

    As per given data

    Dividend = $0.97 x 1.033 = $1

    Growth rate = 3.3%

    Discount rate = 14%

    Formula to calculate the value of stock

    Price = Dividend / (Rate or return - growth rate)

    Price = $1 / (14% - 3.3%)

    Price = $9.35
