Suppose that a financial analyst collected the following data: rate of return on T-bill is 2.5%
Market risk premium is = 5%; company's beta is 0.7; D1 = $2.00; current stock price is
$30.00; future growth of dividends is 6%.
What estimate should the analyst use?
As per CAPM Model,
Required Rate = Rf + Beta(Rm - Rf)
Required Rate = 0.025 + 0.70(0.05)
Required Rate = 6.0%
As per Constant Dividend Growth Model,
Stock Price = D1/(r - g)
r = 2/30 + 0.06
r = 12.67%
