Answer:
Stock’s expected rate of return is 14%
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Current stock price = $25
Next Dividend , D1 = $1.00
Annual growth rate, g = 10% = 0.10
Now,
Expected Rate of Return = [ D1 ÷ Current Stock Price ] + g
= [ $1.00 ÷ $25 ] + 0.10
= 0.04 + 0.10
= 0.14
or
= 0.14 × 100%
= 14%
Hence,
stock’s expected rate of return is 14%
