Suppose a stock will pay $12 per share dividend in one year's time. The dividend is projected to grow at 8% the following year, and then 4% per year indefinitely after that.
To clarify, dividend at beginning of year 1 (that is, one year from today) is:
$12
Beginning of year 2 (2 years from today) is:
$12 * 1.08
Beginning of year 3 (3 years from today) is:
$12 * 1.08 * 1.04
and a 4% rate of growth every year after that.
The required return is 8%. What is the stock’s price today?
