Hot wings, inc., has an odd dividend policy. the company has just paid a dividend of $10.25 per share and has announced that it will increase the dividend by $8.25 per share for each of the next four years, and then never pay another dividend. required: if you require a return of 12 percent on the company’s stock, how much will you pay for a share today?

$56.19

Explanation:

Because Hot Wings' stock only pay dividend in next four years, the stock intrinsic value is sum of these four discounted dividends. Let formulate the calculation as below:

Hot Wings' stock intrinsic value = Dividend in year 1/(1 + Required rate of return) + Dividend in year 2/(1 + Required rate of return)^2 + Dividend in year 3/(1 + Required rate of return)^3 + Dividend in year 4/(1 + Required rate of return)^4

                                                     =  (10.25 + 8.25)/(1 + 12%) + (10.25 + 8.25)/(1 + 12%)^2 + (10.25 + 8.25)/(1 + 12%)^3 + (10.25 + 8.25)/(1 + 12%)^4 = $56.19

the answer is either c or b, i cant be to sure tho.
