Expected Rate of Return
• The price and dividend next year are
expected prices, so
– The expected rate of return in any period
equals the market capitalization rate, k
D1 + P1 − P0
k=
P0

Rate Relationship

• This relationship tells you that next
year’s expected dividend yield + the
expected capital gain yield is equal to the
required rate of return

Price0 Is Discounted Expected
(Dividend1 + Price1)
• Price is the present value of the expected
dividend plus the end-of-year price
discounted at the required rate of return
D1 + P1
P0 =
1+ k
7
Ease of Use
• Recall from chapter 4 that, for a perpetuity,
the present value is the real value of the
first cash flow divided by the real rate

Earning and Investment
Opportunity
• To simplify the analysis, suppose that no
new shares are issues, and no taxes
Dividends = earnings - net new investment

Generalize
• Let the
– V = value of the shares without reinvestment
– G = the growth from new investment
– R = retention ratio
– M = wealth multiplier = g/i
– Wealthg = wealth0*(1-r)/(1-w*r)
