The formula

See Dividend discount formula. D0D_0 is the dividend just paid, gg perpetual growth, kk the required return, all as decimals. D1=D0(1+g)D_1 = D_0(1+g) is next year's dividend. kk must stay above gg or the growing perpetuity has no finite price. The implied yield D1/PD_1/P equals kgk-g.
