ROE= 27.77% Required rate= 9.60% Long term ret. Rate= 20.00%
Year EPS previous year Retention ratio Growth rate EPS current year Dividend current year Terminal value Total Value Discount factor Discounted value

Long term growth rate = =ROE*long term ret. Rate= 5.554% Value of stock = Sum of discounted values= 54.59
Where
Growth rate = ROE*retention rate for corresponding year
EPS curr. Year = EPS previous year*(1+growth rate) if not given
Dividend current year = EPS current year*(1-retention ratio)
Terminal value = Dividend Current year 4 *(1+long term growth rate)/( Required rate-long term growth rate)
Total value = Dividend + horizon value (only for last year)
Discount factor=(1+ Required rate)^corresponding period
Discounted value=total value/discount factor
