Constant growth valuation formula for stocks


You are given the following information about three stocks:

Chapman Tech is expected to pay a $ 1.20 dividend at the end of the year. The required return on Chapman Tech's stock is 11% and its dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 7% per year.

Rust Petroleum is expected to pay a $ 1.50 dividend at the end of the year. Rust Petroleum's dividend yield and capital gains yield both equal 6%.
