AMD expects eаrnings аt the end оf this yeаr оf $8 per share (i.e., EPS1), and it plans tо pay a $4 dividend to shareholders one year from now (i.e., DIV1). AMD will retain $4 per share of its earnings to reinvest in new projects that have an expected return of 10% per year (i.e., the return on new investment is 10%). Suppose AMD will maintain the same dividend payout rate, retention rate, and return on new investments in the future and will not change its number of outstanding shares. a.

If AMD's equity cost of capital (i.e., r) is 12%, what price would you estimate for AMD stock today (i.e., P0)? Use the growth rate computed in part a. (3 points) c.
