	Required rate=	18.00%
Year	Previous year dividend	Dividend growth rate	Dividend current year	Horizon value	Total Value	Discount factor	Discounted value
1	0	0.00%	0		0	1.18	0
2	0	0.00%	0		0	1.3924	0

8	0	0.00%	4.35	59.813	64.163	3.758859203	17.06981
	Long term growth rate (given)=	10.00%			Value of Stock =	Sum of discounted value =	17.07

Where
Total value = Dividend + horizon value (only for last year)
Horizon value = Dividend Current year 8 *(1+long term growth rate)/( Required rate-long term growth rate)
Discount factor=(1+ Required rate)^corresponding period
Discounted value=total value/discount factor
