The analysis uses two models, Williams and Brigham-Pappas, for easy testing of “what if” assumptions concerning implicit growth assumptions in current stock prices. The results demonstrated that the particular model selected to describe a stock's dividend time path, dividend growth rate and the required rate of return has a large impact on the stock's identified value. It was also observed that the stock price applied has a large impact on the stock's identified rate of return and the stock price applied has a large impact on the stock's identified dividend growth rate.
