My finance course is seriously going to kill me... help


My finance course is seriously going to kill me... help!?
A share of common stock has just paid a dividend of $2.00. If the expected long-run growth rate for this stock is 7%, and if investors require a(n) 11% rate of return, what is the price of the stock? You plan to buy a share of XYZ stock today and to hold it for 2 years. Your do not expect to receive a dividend at the end of Year 1, but you will receive a dividend of $9.25 at the end of Year 2. In addition, you expect to sell the stock for $150 at the end of Year 2. If your expected rate of return is 16%, how much should you be willing to pay for this stock today? Thanks so much...

use the Gordon Growth Model stock value (p) = D / k-G Where: D = Expected dividend per share one year from now k = Required rate of return for equity investor G = Growth rate in dividends (in perpetuity)

Hi there,

I am a financial blogger looking for posting articles as a guest writer. I was wondering if you have a spare slot in your writing schedule that I could fill. I have a group of professional financial writers as well working under me. I can provide very informational pieces of articles on any desired topic of finance. Would you like to accept a guest post for your site?

Let me know if you are interested. It would be a great thing if we can successfully work together. :)

I cordially regret in advance if you find this offending.

Many thanks for your time.

Cheers,
Anya Bennett.
