The concept of Growth Rate is similar to the concept of Compound Interest:
If Jean-Paul invests a Principal, P
at a growth rate, r,
Present Dividend = $1.00
Dividend in n years = P(1 + r)^n
Thus we can obtain following Table:
Growth Rate Present Dividend Dividend in 5 yrs Dividend in 10 yrs Dividend in 25 yrs
5 % $1.00 $1.28 $1.68 $3.39
10% $1.00 $2.01 $4.05 $32.92
25% $1.00 $3.05 $9.31 $264.70
