The dividends on the common shares of Mosco Inc. are forecast to grow at 10% per year for the next five years. Thereafter, the best guess is that the annual dividend will grow at the same 3% annual rate as the nominal GNP. A $2.00 dividend for the past year was recently paid. Assume that the required rate of return is 9% compounded annually. What is the fair market value of the shares if we ignore all dividends beyond a 30-year time horizon?
Nominal GNP
Gross National Product measured in current prices, without adjusting for inflation.
Fair Market Value
Fair Market Value is the price at which an asset would trade in a competitive auction setting, reflecting the amount a willing buyer would pay to a willing seller.
