The value of the dividend that investors expect corporation


The value of the dividend that investors expect corporation B to pay one year from today is $10

Given that corporations A and B have exactly the same risk and both have a current stock price of $100. We can assume that the before-dividend stock price of Corporation B one year from now will also be $120 (stock price of Corporation A, one year from now).

Expected dividend by shareholders=Expected before dividend stock price - Expected after dividend stock price / (1- Income tax rate on dividends)

Expected dividend by shareholders = $120 - $113 / (1- 0.30) = $7 / 0.70 = $10
