Gabriel Cisneros · Answer 1

Its very simple, the required return would be 12% of the amount invested today. And this can be explained by the use of DVM (Dividend valuation Model), which is as under:

For ordinary shares r = (Dividend after one year / Share price now)

Dividend after one year = Required return * Share Price Now

Assuming no growth in the dividends, we can say that the required return would be 12% of the amount invested now which is the share price of the ordinary shares.
