If stock’s earnings per share are $2.00, what will be the dividend per share if the
payout ratio is 40 percent? If the following year’s earnings per share are $2.10,
what will the payout ratio be if the firm wants to maintain dividend growth of 8
percent.

Dividend per share = Earnings per share * Payout Ratio (DIV=EPS* PR)
A) DIV= 2*0,4=0,8

B) DIV1=DIV (1+GROWTH)
The Fridge-Air Company’s preferred stock pays a dividend of $4.50 per

The Lo Company earned $2.60 per share and paid a dividend of $1.30 per share
in the year just ended. Earnings and dividends per share are expected to grow at a
rate of 5 percent per year in the future.
Determine the value of the stock:
a. The required rate of return is 12 percent.
b. The required rate of return is 15 percent
A)Required return= 12%, growth=5%
Stock price= D0 (1+growth)/ (required return-growth) =1.365/(0.12-0.05)= 1.365/0.07=$19.50
Value of stock is $19.50

b) Required return= 15% growth=5%


Stock price= D0 (1+growth)/(required return-growth) =1.365/(0.15-0.05)= 1.365/0.10=$13.65
Value of stock is $13.65
c) when the investor required return increases then the stock price decreases. So when required return
increases by 3% then value of stock will decrease by $5.85

current stock price?

A)R= D0 (1+growth)/SP +growth


B) SP= D0 (1+growth)/ (required return-growth)
C) growth=0% SP= D0 (1+growth)/ (required return-growth)
d) From parts b) and c) we can see that as the growth rate increases , the price of the stock increases meaning
that there is a linear relationship between the 2
