Quantitative Problem 1: Hubbard Industries just paid a common dividend, D0, of $1.50. It expects to grow at a constant rate of 2% per year. If investors require a 8% return on equity, what is the current price of Hubbard's common stock? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent. $ per share

The current price of Hubbard's common stock is $25.50.

Explanation:

This can be calculated using the Gordon growth model (GGM) formula that assumes growth is dividend will be constant as follows:

P = D1/(r - g) (1)

Where,

P = Current stock price = ?

D1 = Next dividend =  D0 * (1 + g) = $1.50 * (1 + 2%) = $1.53

r = required return = 8%, or 0.08

g = growth rate = 2%, or 0.02

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

P = $1.53 / (0.08 - 0.02) = $25.50

Therefore, the current price of Hubbard's common stock is $25.50.
