Dividend in n years = P(1 + r)^n
Dividend in n years = P(1 + r)^n


Thus we can draw following Table:

The concept of Growth Rate is similar to the concept of Compound Interest:

If Jean-Paul invests a Principal, P, of $1.00 at a growth rate, r, of 5%

Present Dividend = $1.00

Dividend in n years = P(1 + r)^n

                   = 1(1.05)^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
