The Delta Manufacturing Company has a marginal tax rate of 21 %. The last dividend paid by Delta was $2.60. The expected long-run growth rate is 4%. If investors require 11% rate of return, what is the current price of the stock (P0)?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The stock price is 38.63

Explanation:

We use the gordon model to calculate the horizon value and with htat the value of the stock:

[tex]\frac{D_1}{r-g} = PV\\\frac{D_0(1+g)}{r-g} = PV\\[/tex]

D1 = 2.60 x 1.04 = 2.704

rate of return 11% = 0.11

grow rate = 4% = 0.04

[tex]\frac{2.704}{0.11-0.04} = PV\\[/tex]

P0 = 38.62857143

The taxes should be ignored as the gordon model do not include them in the calculations
