A

The traditional equation for the infinite period dividend discount model is as follows: Value of common stock = D1 / (k - g)

Where: D1 = the dividend at t1, k = the required rate of return, and g = the assumed growth rate of dividends.

Remember that the dividend at t1, which is characterized as "D1" is calculated by multiplying the dividend at t0 by (1 + growth rate of dividends). This equation will produce logical results regardless of whether growth or contraction of dividends is expected in the future.
