You are considering buying a share of stock in XYZ Corporation. At the end of years 1, 2, and 3 the stock will pay you a dividend of $15. In addition, at the end of the third year you expect to sell the share of stock for $100. If the interest rate is 3%, how much is the share of XYZ stock worth to you today

The stock price will be the present value of this investment which is at $133.735.

Explanation:

The cash inflows which is dividend here will be discounted at 3% annuity fator by:

Present value of cash dividend = Cash flow * Annuity factor for 3 years at 3%

PV = $100 * [1-(1+3%)^3 years] /3%  = $15 * 2.829 = $42.235

The present value of the future cash inflow arising from the sales of stock for $100 can be calculated by:

Present Value = Cash inflow * Discount factor

Present Value =  $100 * (1+3%)^3 years = $100 * 0.915 = $91.5

Total Present Value  = Present Value of Dividends + Present value of stock

Total Present Value  = $42.235 + $91.5 = $133.735
