Assume that a share of stock with constant growth expects to pay a dividend (D1) of $2.00 per share, has a required rate of return of 8 percent, and has a current price (Po) of $40.00. Also assume that the stock's price is in equilibrium so that expected rates are equal to required rates of return. Given this information, determine what percentage of the stocks current price (value) is derived from the dividends expected to be received in Years 1-17.
