Agarwal Technologies Was Founded 10 Years Ago A) $ 994
B) $10

Agarwal Technologies was founded 10 years ago. It has been profitable for the last 5 years, but it has needed all of its earnings to support growth and thus has never paid a dividend. Management has indicated that it plans to pay a $0.25 dividend 3 years from today, then to increase it at a relatively rapid rate for 2 years, and then to increase it at a constant rate of 8.00% thereafter. Management's forecast of the future dividend stream, along with the forecasted growth rates, is shown below. Assuming a required return of 11.00%, what is your estimate of the stock's current value? $$\begin{array} { l r r r r r r r } \text { Year } & 0 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 \\\hline \text { Growth rate } & \text { NA } & \text { NA } & \text { NA } & \text { NA } & 50.00 \% & 25.00 \% & 8.00 \% \\\text { Dividends } & \$ 0.000 & \$ 0.000 & \$ 0.000 & \$ 0.250 & \$ 0.375 & \$ 0.469 & \$ 0.506\end{array}$$
