About this lesson

The video reconnects the dividend valuation model formula to the cost of equity, showing you how it's the same calculation simply rearranged to find share price instead. You'll explore how to handle both constant growth dividends (growing at a steady rate each year) and non-constant growth scenarios (where growth rates change over time), and understand why you need the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) to make this valuation method work. Finally, you'll discover the key strengths and weaknesses of the dividend valuation model so you can assess whether it's giving you a reasonable valuation in different business circumstances—essential knowledge for exam success and real-world application.
