Reizenstein Technologies (RT) has just developed a solar panel capable of generating 200% more electricity than any solar panel currently on the market. As a result, RT is expected to experience a 14% annual growth rate for the next 5 years. By the end of 5 years, other firms will have developed comparable technology, and RT's growth rate will slow to 7% per year indefinitely. Stockholders require a return of 12% on RT's stock. The most recent annual dividend (D0), which was paid yesterday, was $2.50 per share.

If the price as estimated by the marginal investor differs from the
market price, then investors will buy or sell until an equilibrium
has been established, with the intrinsic value as estimated by the
marginal investor equals the actual market price.

If you think the stock is priced above or below its intrinsic
value, then you should at least consider buying if the stock is
undervalued or selling if it is overvalued. If you turn out to be
correct, then you will make money, eventually if you hold on to an
unpopular position long enough.
