Year Item Dividents PVF @ 10% PV of Dividents
4 D4            3.60          0.6830                        2.46
5 D5            4.64          0.6209                        2.88
6 D6            5.99          0.5645                        3.38
7 D7            7.73          0.5132                        3.97
7 P7         81.10          0.5132                      41.62
                     54.31

P7 = D8/Required rate of Return

= 7.73*105%/0.10

= 81.10

D5 = 3.6 * 129% = 4.64

D6 = 4.64 * 129% = 5.99

D7 = 5.99 *129% = 7.73

D8 = 7.73 * 105% = 8.11
