Q

Calculate the intrinsic stock price using the dividend growth model

A

the dividend growth model is d1 / (req. rate of return (RRR) - internal growth rate(g))

the required rate of return will be calc’d using CAPM
RRR = Rf + beta (Rm -Rf)

the internal growth rate is calc’d
g = (return on assets x retention rate) / (1 - (return on assets x retention rate))

to calc d1 = D0 x (1 + g )
if they don’t give you d0 you can do earnings per share (e0) x payout rate

now you have d1, RRR and g
