g You are looking for a dividend security to provide yourself with additional steady income. You have found a company with an expected dividend next year of $1.20. You have done an analysis on the company's past dividends and the dividend amount has increased at a constant rate of 3.4 percent for the last eight years and you have no expectation of a change in growth rate. If you require a 9 percent rate of return on your investments, what should you be willing to pay today for the stock

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

The following information can be gotten from the question:

Expected dividend, D1 = $1.20

Required rate of return, r = 9%

Growth rate = 3.4%

Then, the formula to get the price will be:

= D1/(r-g)

= 1.2/(9%-3.4%)

= 1.2/5.6%

= $21.4

The amount to pay due the stock is less than $24.00
