The two-stage dividend growth model evaluates the current price of a stock based on the assumption a stock will:
A)pay an increasing dividend for a period of time and then cease paying dividends altogether.
B)increase the dividend amount every other year.
C)pay a constant dividend for the first two quarters of each year and then increase the dividend the last two quarters of each year.
D)grow at a fixed rate for a period of time after which it will grow at a different rate indefinitely.
E)pay increasing dividends for a fixed period of time, cease paying dividends for a period of time, and then commence paying increasing dividends for an indefinite period of time.
