| cgeek | 2.1 / ( 7% + 4%) = 19.09 |
| brujita94 | This should be the value of a prefered stock, not common?? |
| ange | It is still a common stock, but the growth rate of dividend is 0%. So instead of D1/(k-g) you have D1/k = 2.1/11% = 19.09 |
| accounting | even the Gordon DDM works with g=0 |
| Lavay | The key point here is to know that you add both the rf + rp to get the capitalization rate. |
| jonan203 | FYI, preferreds typically have a $25 par value. |
| houstcarr | this also shows how dividend discount models apply absolutely no value to common stock having voting rights, whereas preferred does not. this is not the case in reality |
You have a wonderful website and definitely should take some credit for your members' outstanding grades.
