(Stocks) ABC Corp has a 14.18% return on equity and reinvests (retains) 37% of its profits. What is the intrinsic value of the company's share of stock, to the nearest penny, if the required rate of return is 16.21% and the most recent annual dividend per share (D0) was $2.55? If your answer is, e.g., $45.365, record it as 45.37.
Constant growth dividend discont model
g = ROE * retention ratio
g = 14.18% * 37%
g = 0.052466
D1 = D0 * (1 + g)
D1 = 2.55 * (1 + 0.052466)
D1 = 2.6837883
Intrinsic value = D1/(r - g)
Intrinsic value = 2.6837883/(0.1621 - 0.052466)
Intrinsic value = 2.6837883/0.109634
Intrinsic value = $24.4795255122
Answer: 24.48
