The dividend will then grow at 6% per annum for five years. After that (year 10 onwards) growth will slow to 2% per annum, which will be assumed to be the dividend growth rate thereafter. The cost of equity is 12%, the debt rate is 6% and the tax rate is 25%. Palozzi is 80% equity financed. What is the share price today?
