Stock Price :
The price is a reflection of the company's value – what the public is willing to pay for a piece of the company. It is nothing but present value of cash flows ( Div & Sale Price of Stock at future date) from it.
P10 = D11 / [ Ke - g ]

P10 - Price after 10 Years

D11 - Div after 11 Years

Ke - required Ret

g - Growth Rate

= $ 6.00 / [ 13% - 8% ]
