KenBoy Limited is expected to pay a Ksh 0.60 dividend next year. The dividend is expected to grow at a 50 percent annual rate for Years 2 and 3, at 20 percent annually for Years 4 and 5, and at 5 percent annually for Year 6 and thereafter. If the required rate of return is 12 percent, what is the value per share, three years from now?
Calculation of Value per share, three years from now i.e value of the share at the end of the third year.
formula for that is :
r = rate of return i.e 12%
D1 = dividend for year 1
D2 = dividend for year 2
D3= dividend for year 3
V3 = D1 /(1+r)1 + D2 /(1+r)2+D3/(1+r)3
V3 = 0.6/(1.12)1+0.6+50%/(1.12)2+0.9+50%/(1.12)3
V3 =0.54+0.72+0.96
V3 =2.22
Value of the share at the end of the third year= 2.22
