Expert Solution
Step 1

The constant growth model is a method for valuing the share price of a stock. It calculates the intrinsic value of a stock. It is also known as the Dividend Discount Model (DDM) or Gordon’s Growth Model (GGM).

It is an important tool in comparing various companies across industries while making an investment decision.

It is calculated as:

Price = Expected DividendExpected Return - Growth

Calculate the expected dividend:

Expected Dividend = Current Dividend 1 + growthExpected Dividend = 0.51+0.03Expected Dividend = $ 0.515
