Question
Which of the following is the most accurate estimate of the value of a share of Busicomb Inc.'s common stock using the H model variant of the dividend discount model (DDM)? Work to the nearest $ and assume the cost of equity is 12.3%.
Answer Choices:
A. $33 per share
B. $32 per share
C. $42 per share
Explanation
Cost of equity = Rf + β(Rm – Rf)
= 4.5% + 1.3(6%) = 12.3%
Using the H model:
Dividend = 17.6m / 12m = $1.47
MV = $24.73 + $8.40
MV = $33.13
