Asha Textiles is expected to pay a dividend of Rs 6 per share next year. Dividends are expected to grow at 5% per annum forever, and the investor's required return is 11%. What is the intrinsic value per share?

The intrinsic value is Rs 100 per share. Using the constant growth model, the next dividend of Rs 6 is divided by the required return of 11% minus growth of 5%, which is 6%, giving 6 divided by 0.06 equal to Rs 100.

Explanation

Value = D1/(r-g) = 6/(0.11-0.05) = 6/0.06 = Rs 100. Check: 100 x 0.06 = 6. Rs 54.55 results from dividing by 11% alone, ignoring growth. Rs 37.50 results from dividing by (r+g)=16%. Rs 120 uses 5% as the denominator.
