The formula for calculating the cost of equity capital using the dividend growth model approach is Blank______. (RE denotes the cost of equity, D1 is the next period’s projected dividend, g is the growth rate, and P0 is the current stock price.) Multiple choice question.

(3) According to the Dividend-Discount Model Equation, the price of the stock today (Po) is equal to the present value of all of the expected future dividends (e.g., Divi, Div..., Divx) investors will receive, along with the cash flow from the sale of the stock (i.e., Ps) in year N (see, the following Equation). Div Div ₂ + L + 1+FE (1+E)² Po = + PN Div N (1+re)^ *(1+r)^ List three practical challenges (i.e., limitations) when using the Equation to calculate stock price (Po) in practice.
