Computech Corporation is expanding rapidly and currently needs
to retain all of its earnings; hence, it does not pay dividends.
However, investors expect Computech to begin paying dividends,
beginning with a dividend of $1.50 coming 3 years from today. The
dividend should grow rapidly—at a rate of 44% per year—during Years
4 and 5, but after Year 5, growth should be a constant 8% per year.
If the required return on Computech is 17%, what is the value of
the stock today? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your
answer to the nearest cent.
