Question

The Reading Co. has adopted a policy of increasing the annual dividend on its common stock at a constant rate of 3 percent annually. The last dividend it paid (T = 0) was $.90 a share. What will be the company's dividend six years from now?

Answer 1

$1.07

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question ,we use the formula which is shown below:

A = P × (1 + r ÷ 100)^n

where,

P = Present value $0.90

A = Future value

rate =3%

number of years = 6

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the value would be equal to

= $0.90 × (1 + 3%)^6

= $0.90 × 1.03^6

= $0.90 + 1.194052

= $1.07

We considered all the items so that the correct dividend can come
