The expected rate of return for a stock whose next dividend is "DIV1", that has a required rate of return "r" and expects to grow its future dividends at a rate of "g" is . r = g r = DIV1/P0 r = DIV1 + P0/g r = (DIV1/P0) + g

The correct answer is r=(DIV1/P0)+g

Explanation:

The expected rate of return for a stock is usually the dividend yield  added to capital gains yield.

Dividend yield is the percentage of the share's price that the company pays to shareholders as dividends and the formula is the dividends divided by the share price, hence in this scenario it DIV1/PO

On other hand,capital gains yield is the percentage increase of the share price over time. In other words, the share price growth rate,which is a market expectation of the company's performance.The g given in the question depicted this.

Without mincing words,the expected rate of return on the stock is dividends yield(DIV1/P0) plus the capital gains yield(g)

the answer is either c or b, i cant be to sure tho.
