          The intrinsic value of the stock is
          equal to the present value of its cash flows.

          Year 1 CF: £1.50 dividend

          Year 2 CF: £2.00 dividend

          Year 3 CF: £2.50 dividend + £36.23
          terminal value (£38.73 total)

          The present value of these payments
          at 10% is:

          PV = 1.50 / 1.1 + 2.00 / 1.1^2 +
          38.73 / 1.1^3 = 32.11
