Preferred stock of 6$ dividend sustainable growth rate of company is 5% yield on comparable stocks is 11.5% marginal tax rate is 30% value the stock of the company the answer is 6/0.115 = 52$ why did we not use the growth rate in the denominator? I would have gotten ninety something dollars if : 6/ (0.115-0.05) is it a rule for preferred stocks to not use growth rate??
