Explanation:
Dividend Valuation method is used to value the stock price of a company based on the dividend paid, its growth rate and rate of return. The price is calculated by calculating present value of future dividend payment.
Formula to calculate the value of stock
Price = Dividend / ( Rate or return - growth rate )
$54 = $6 / ( Rate or return - 5% )
Rate or return - 0.05 = $6 / $54
Rate or return - 0.05 = 0.1111
Rate or return = 0.05 + 0.1111
Rate or return = 01611
Rate or return = 16.11%
