Suppose you know that a company's stock currently sells for $57 per share and the required return on the stock is 10.4%. You also know that the total return on the stock is evenly divided between capital gains yield and dividend yield. If it's the company's policy to always maintain a constant growth rate in its dividends, what is the current dividend per share? What is the dividend per share in Year 4?

$2.82

Explanation:

Calculation for what is the current dividend per share

First step is to calculate the Dividend yield

Dividend yield= 1/2 (.104)

Dividend yield= .052

Now let calculate the current dividend per share

Current dividend per share=(.052*57 per share)/(1+0.052)

Current dividend per share= 2.964/1.052

Current dividend per share=$2.82

Therefore the Current dividend per share will be $2.82

the correct answer is economics is a game without winners or losers.

unlike sports or games economic is a game without losers or winner rather it is a game where everyone wins. parties of business doing businesses exchange money with each other and hence exchange is done on the basis of goods. one party takes the goods and other sales it so there is winner on both sides. each party values more highly the good it gets than the good it gives up. both sides exchange only because both intend to increase their value. so there is no concept of lose or win.
