  • Problem 5. The dividend growth model is used by many investors to value stock. Calculate the price of a share of Megaware stock today by using the following dividend growth model equation:
  • P0 = E1(1 − b) / Rs = ROE × b
  • The value of the stock equals next year’s dividends divided by the sustainable growth rate.
  • The dividend-payout ratio is 1 minus b, where b is the retention ratio. The dividend next year (P0) will be the earnings next year (E1) times 1 minus the retention ratio: P0 = E1(1 − b).
  • The sustainable growth rate (Rs) is the return on equity (ROE) times the retention ratio: Rs = ROE × b.
  • Based on your results, should Megaware pay a dividend or expand its manufacturing capability? Explain your decision.

The only known dollar amount in the problem is the company will receive an after-tax payment of $42 million for selling a piece of hardware and have been in business for 8 years.
