Session 12: Equity Investments: Valuation Models Reading 45: Residual Income Valuation
LOS m: Evaluate whether a stock is overvalued, fairly valued, or undervalued by the market based on a residual income model.
An analyst uses the financial statements of Advanced Instruments to generate the following estimates:
- Book Value per share = 4.00
- Dividend retention ratio = 75%
- ROE = 17%
If the required rate of return is 15%, and the current share price is $7.56 per share, the stock (using a single-stage residual income model) is most likely:
g = retention ratio × ROE = (0.75) × 0.17 = 0.1275 or 12.75%
