Simpkins corporations does not pay any dividends because it


Simpkins Corporations does not pay any dividends because it is expanding rapidly and needs to retain all of its earnings. However, investors expect Simpkins to begin paying dividends, with the first dividend of $.50 coming 3 years from today. The dividend should grow rapidly at a rate of 80% per year-during year 4 and 5. After year 5, the company should grow at a constant rate of 7% per year. If the required return on the stock is 16%, what is the value of the stock today (assuming the market is in equilibrium with the required return equal to the expected return)?
