Page 8 – Exercise A-1
Given:
Year 1: $3.00
Year 2: $4.50
Year 3: $6.10
Sale price at end of Year 3: $22.40
Required return r = 12.5\% = 0.125
Current security value = PV of dividends + PV of sale price
P_0 = \frac{3}{(1.125)^1} + \frac{4.5}{(1.125)^2} + \frac{6.1 + 22.4}{(1.125)^3}
= \frac{3}{1.125} + \frac{4.5}{1.265625} + \frac{28.5}{1.423828125}
= 2.6667 + 3.5556 + 20.0105
= 26.2328 \ (\text{approx } \$26.23)
Investment decision:
Market price per share = $13,
Intrinsic value ≈ $26.23 → Undervalued → Buy.

a. Div = 30p, \ r = 12\%
P = \frac{Div}{r} = \frac{30}{0.12} = 250p = £2.50
b. Div = $2, \ r = 15\%
P = \frac{2}{0.15} = \$13.33
\]
If current trading price is $15 → overvalued.
c. Div = RM 3.5, \ r = 16.5\%
P = \frac{3.5}{0.165} = RM 21.21

Page 14 – Illustration 1
Bhhh plc:
D_0 = 10p, \ g = 9.5\%, \ r = 12.5\%
P_0 = \frac{D_0(1+g)}{r-g} = \frac{10 \times 1.095}{0.125 - 0.095}
= \frac{10.95}{0.03} = 365p = £3.65
---
Page 15 – Illustration 1.5
Given: g = 10.5\%, \ r = 12.5\%, \ D_1 = 10p
P_0 = \frac{D_1}{r-g} = \frac{10}{0.125 - 0.105} = \frac{10}{0.02} = 500p = £5.00
If current trading price is $10 → overvalued in pound terms, but currency mismatch
suggests possible conversion issue. Likely overvalued if $10 > £5.

Page 16 – Illustration 1.a
Telford plc: D_1 = 15p, \ g = 10.5\%, \ r = 15\%
P_0 = \frac{15}{0.15 - 0.105} = \frac{15}{0.045} = 333.33p = £3.33
If current trading price is $15.25, overvalued significantly.

Page 17 – Illustration 1.b
Jenkins Co: P_0 = $53, \ r = 12\%, \ D_1 = $2.85
Constant growth formula:
P_0 = \frac{D_1}{r-g} \implies 53 = \frac{2.85}{0.12 - g}
0.12 - g = \frac{2.85}{53} = 0.05377
g = 0.12 - 0.05377 = 0.06623 \approx 6.62\%
---
Page 18 – Illustration 1.c
Part 1: P_0 = $50, \ D_1 = $2, \ g = 6\%
r = \frac{D_1}{P_0} + g = \frac{2}{50} + 0.06 = 0.04 + 0.06 = 0.10 = 10\%
Part 2: If r = 12\% ,
P_0 = \frac{D_1}{r-g} = \frac{2}{0.12 - 0.06} = \frac{2}{0.06} = \$33.33
\]
Dividend yield = \frac{2}{33.33} \approx 6\% .
---
Page 19 – Illustration 1.d
D_0 = 2.53, \ g = 5.4\%, \ r = 10\%
P_0 = \frac{2.53 \times 1.054}{0.10 - 0.054} = \frac{2.66662}{0.046} = \$57.97
In 4 years: P_4 = P_0 (1+g)^4 = 57.97 \times 1.054^4
1.054^4 \approx 1.232 → P_4 \approx 71.42
In 10 years: P_{10} = 57.97 \times 1.054^{10}
1.054^{10} \approx 1.698 → P_{10} \approx 98.43
In 20 years: P_{20} = 57.97 \times 1.054^{20}
1.054^{20} \approx 2.883 → P_{20} \approx 167.12
---
Page 20 – Illustration 1.e
D_1 = 3.50, \ g = 4.5\%, \ r = 15\%
P_0 = \frac{3.50}{0.15 - 0.045} = \frac{3.50}{0.105} = \$33.33
Five years later:
P_5 = P_0 (1+g)^5 = 33.33 \times 1.045^5
1.045^5 \approx 1.246 → P_5 \approx 41.53

Given: D_0 = 2.00, \ g = 6\%, \ r = 13\%
D_1 = 2.12, \ D_2 = 2.247, \ D_3 = 2.382
PV of D_1 = \frac{2.12}{1.13} = 1.8761
PV of D_2 = \frac{2.247}{1.13^2} = 1.7599
PV of D_3 = \frac{2.382}{1.13^3} = 1.6509
Sum = 5.2869
---
Page 27 – Stock’s market value
P_0 = \frac{D_1}{r-g} = \frac{2.12}{0.13 - 0.06} = \frac{2.12}{0.07} = \$30.29
---
Page 28 – Expected price one year from now
P_1 = \frac{D_2}{r-g} = \frac{2.247}{0.07} = \$32.10
Or P_1 = P_0 (1+g) = 30.29 \times 1.06 = 32.107
---
Page 29 – Dividend yield, capital gains yield, total return
Dividend yield = \frac{D_1}{P_0} = \frac{2.12}{30.29} \approx 7.0\%
Capital gains yield = \frac{32.10 - 30.29}{30.29} \approx 6.0\%
Total return = 7.0\% + 6.0\% = 13.0\%

Page 31–32 – Nonconstant growth example
Given: D_0 = 2.00, \ r = 13\%, \ g_1 = 30\% for 3 years, then g = 6\% .
Dividends:
D_1 = 2.00 \times 1.30 = 2.60
D_2 = 2.60 \times 1.30 = 3.38
D_3 = 3.38 \times 1.30 = 4.394
D_4 = 4.394 \times 1.06 = 4.65764
Horizon value at t=3:
P_3 = \frac{D_4}{r-g} = \frac{4.65764}{0.13 - 0.06} = \frac{4.65764}{0.07} = 66.5377
PV of cash flows:
PV(D1) = \frac{2.60}{1.13} = 2.3009
PV(D2) = \frac{3.38}{1.13^2} = 2.647
PV(D3 + P3) = \frac{4.394 + 66.5377}{1.13^3} = \frac{70.9317}{1.4429} = 49.16
Sum = 2.301 + 2.647 + 49.16 = 54.108 \approx \$54.11
---
Page 33 – Dividend yield and capital gains yield in first year
Dividend yield (Year 1) = \frac{D_1}{P_0} = \frac{2.60}{54.11} \approx 4.81\%
Capital gains yield = Total return − Dividend yield = 13\% - 4.81\% = 8.19\%
---
Page 34 – Nonconstant growth with g=0\% for 3 years, then 6%
D_0 = 2.00, \ D_1 = D_2 = D_3 = 2.00, \ D_4 = 2.12
P_3 = \frac{D_4}{r-g} = \frac{2.12}{0.07} = \$30.29
PV:
PV(D1) = \frac{2.00}{1.13} = 1.7699
PV(D2) = \frac{2.00}{1.13^2} = 1.5663
PV(D3 + P3) = \frac{2.00 + 30.29}{1.13^3} = \frac{32.29}{1.4429} = 22.38
Sum = 1.77 + 1.57 + 22.38 = 25.72 → P_0 = \$25.72
---
Page 35 – Dividend and capital gains yields
Year 1 dividend yield = \frac{2.00}{25.72} = 7.78\%
Capital gains yield = 13\% - 7.78\% = 5.22\%
Year 4 onward: constant growth at 6%, so:
Dividend yield = r - g = 13\% - 6\% = 7\%
Capital gains yield = 6\%
---
Page 36 – Negative growth g = -6\%
D_1 = 2.00 \times 0.94 = 1.88, \ r = 13\%
P_0 = \frac{1.88}{0.13 - (-0.06)} = \frac{1.88}{0.19} = \$9.89
---
Page 37 – Dividend and capital gains yields for negative growth
Capital gains yield = g = -6.00\%
Dividend yield = r - g = 13\% - (-6\%) = 19.00\%
---
Page 38 – Exercise N-0
Given: D_0 = 1.80, \ D_1 = 2.12, \ P_0 = 30.29, \ P_1 = 32.10
Dividend yield = \frac{D_1}{P_0} = \frac{2.12}{30.29} \approx 7.0\%
Capital gains yield = \frac{32.10 - 30.29}{30.29} \approx 6.0\%
Total return = 7.0\% + 6.0\% = 13.0\%
---
Page 39 – Exercise N-1
Juliet Music Co:
D_0 = 0.80
Growth 5% for 3 years, then 8% forever, r = 12\%
Dividends:
D_1 = 0.80 \times 1.05 = 0.84
D_2 = 0.84 \times 1.05 = 0.882
D_3 = 0.882 \times 1.05 = 0.9261
D_4 = 0.9261 \times 1.08 = 1.000188
Horizon value at t=3:
P_3 = \frac{D_4}{r-g} = \frac{1.000188}{0.12 - 0.08} = \frac{1.000188}{0.04} = 25.0047
PV:
PV(D1) = 0.84/1.12 = 0.75
PV(D2) = 0.882/1.12^2 = 0.703
PV(D3 + P3) = (0.9261 + 25.0047)/1.12^3 = 25.9308/1.404928 = 18.46
Sum = 0.75 + 0.703 + 18.46 = 19.913 \approx \$19.91
---
Page 40 – Exercise N-2
Given: D_0 = 2, \ r = 13\% (use cost of equity),
Growth: 10% for 2 years, 12% for 2 years, then 10% forever.
Dividends:
D_1 = 2.20
D_2 = 2.42
D_3 = 2.42 \times 1.12 = 2.7104
D_4 = 2.7104 \times 1.12 = 3.03565
D_5 = 3.03565 \times 1.10 = 3.339215
Horizon value at t=4:
P_4 = \frac{D_5}{r-g} = \frac{3.339215}{0.13 - 0.10} = \frac{3.339215}{0.03} = 111.307
PV:
PV(D1) = 2.20/1.13 = 1.9469
PV(D2) = 2.42/1.13^2 = 1.895
PV(D3) = 2.7104/1.13^3 = 1.877
PV(D4 + P4) = (3.03565 + 111.307)/1.13^4 = 114.34265/1.6305 = 70.13
Sum = 1.947 + 1.895 + 1.877 + 70.13 = 75.849 \approx \$75.85

Page 41 – Exam Type Exercise N-3
BMW Ltd: r = 16\%, \ D_0 = 1.10, \ D_1 = 1.20
Growth: 12% for 2 years after D1, then 3% forever.
So:
D_1 = 1.20
D_2 = 1.20 \times 1.12 = 1.344
D_3 = 1.344 \times 1.12 = 1.50528
D_4 = 1.50528 \times 1.03 = 1.5504384
Horizon value at t=3:
P_3 = \frac{D_4}{r-g} = \frac{1.5504384}{0.16 - 0.03} = \frac{1.5504384}{0.13} = 11.92645
PV:
PV(D1) = 1.20/1.16 = 1.0345
PV(D2) = 1.344/1.16^2 = 0.999
PV(D3 + P3) = (1.50528 + 11.92645)/1.16^3 = 13.43173/1.5609 = 8.605
Sum = 1.0345 + 0.999 + 8.605 = 10.6385 \approx \$10.64
---
Page 42 – Exercise N-3 (Extra)
Given: P_0 = 65, \ r = 10\%, \ g = 5\% , dividend yield = capital gains yield = r/2 = 5\% each.
But if total return = 10% and equally divided → dividend yield = 5%, so
\frac{D_1}{P_0} = 0.05 \implies D_1 = 0.05 \times 65 = 3.25
\]
D_1 = D_0 (1+g) \implies D_0 = \frac{3.25}{1.05} = 3.095
So current dividend per share D_0 = \$3.10 (approx).

Page 43 – Exercise N-4 (Extra)
Laurence Industries: D_0 = 1.80, \ r = 11\%, g1 = 8% for 3 years, then g2 varies.
Case (i) g2 = 5% forever after Year 3:
D_1 = 1.944, \ D_2 = 2.0995, \ D_3 = 2.2675, \ D_4 = 2.381
P_3 = \frac{D_4}{r-g} = \frac{2.381}{0.11 - 0.05} = \frac{2.381}{0.06} = 39.683
PV = \frac{1.944}{1.11} + \frac{2.0995}{1.11^2} + \frac{2.2675 + 39.683}{1.11^3}
= 1.751 + 1.704 + 31.18 = 34.635
Case (ii) g2 = 0%:
D_4 = D_3 = 2.2675
P_3 = \frac{2.2675}{0.11} = 20.6136
PV = 1.751 + 1.704 + \frac{2.2675 + 20.6136}{1.11^3}
= 1.751 + 1.704 + 16.93 = 20.385
Case (iii) g2 = 10%:
D_4 = 2.49425
P_3 = \frac{2.49425}{0.11 - 0.10} = \frac{2.49425}{0.01} = 249.425
PV = 1.751 + 1.704 + \frac{2.2675 + 249.425}{1.11^3}
= 1.751 + 1.704 + 186.6 = 190.055

ABC plc:
Earnings = 35.5m, common shares = 1.25m
EPS = \frac{35.5}{1.25} = 28.4
P/E = 14.5
Price per share = EPS × P/E = 28.4 \times 14.5 = 411.8 (taka)
If market price = 225.5 → undervalued.
Limitations: P/E uses historical earnings, ignores growth, accounting differences.
---
Page 49 – Illustration EX-2
A) Master Inc: P/E = 10, EPS = 2.50 → Price = 10 \times 2.50 = \$25
B) Roberts: P/E = 25, Price = 125 → EPS = \frac{125}{25} = \$5
C) Trailing P/E uses past earnings, forward P/E uses forecasted earnings. Forward P/E likely
yields higher market value if growth expected.

Tesco: Use latest year 2021-22: EAT = 305,481, shares = 10,000
EPS = 305,481 / 10,000 = 30.5481
P/E = 15.5 → Price = 30.5481 \times 15.5 = 473.495
If current price = $61.25 → undervalued (but mismatch likely due to share count change —
maybe use 80,000 shares for EPS). With 80,000 shares, EPS = 305,481/80,000 = 3.8185,
Price = 3.8185×15.5 = 59.186, close to $61.25.

\]
Aman EPS = \frac{3,490,000}{1,000,000} = 3.49
Estimated price = 3.49 \times 20.32 = 70.9168
Market price 63.25 → slightly undervalued.
