Solution

1.
Price today=5/1.14^4+5/1.14^5+5/1.14^6+5/1.14^7+5/1.14^8+(5*1.01/(14%-1%))/1.14^8=25.20
3.
Dividend yield=0%
2.
Capital gains yield=required return-dividend yield=14%-0%=14%
4.
Value of the stock in 8 years=(5*1.01/(14%-1%))=38.85
5.
Price in 10 years=5*1.01^3/(14%-1%)
Dividend yield in 13 years=5*1.01^3/(5*1.01^3/(14%-1%))=13%
Capital gains yield in 10 years=14%-13%=1%
6.
Price in 13 years=5*1.01^6/(14%-1%)
Dividend yield in 13 years=5*1.01^6/(5*1.01^6/(14%-1%))=13%
7.
Value in 3 years=5/1.14^1+5/1.14^2+5/1.14^3+5/1.14^4+5/1.14^5+(5*1.01/(14%-1%))/1.14^5=37.34
8.
Dividend yield in 3 years=5/37.34=13.39%
9.
Capital gains yield in 3 years=14%-13.39%=0.61%
