The Gordon Growth Model calculator computes the present value of a stock based on the dividend per share in year one (D1), the required growth rate (k), and the growth rates in dividends (g).

INSTRUCTIONS: Choose the preferred units and enter the following:

• (D1) This is the dividend per share in year one.
• (k) This is the investors required annual rate of return.
• (g) This is the perpetual annual growth rate in dividends.

Gordon Growth Model (VoS): The calculator returns the present value of the stock in U.S. dollars.  However, this can be automatically converted to other currencies via the pull-down menu.

#### The Math / Science

The Gordon growth model is used to determine the intrinsic value of a stock based on a future series of dividends that grow at a constant rate. Given a dividend per share that is payable in one year, and the assumption the dividend grows at a constant rate in perpetuity, the model solves for the present value of the infinite series of future dividends.
