Dividends and share repurchases

The expected dividend as per curriculum is :

= Previous dividend + (expected earnings * target payout ratio - previous dividend) * adjustment factor

Whereas , as per Schweser,

= Previous dividend + ( expected eps growth * target payout ratio * adjustment factor)

These are different. What am i missing?

Follow the curriculum. Schweser is still following the formula used in 2017 syllabus.

Expected dividend

= Previous dividend + (expected earnings * target payout ratio - previous dividend) * adjustment factor

Thank you

I encountered a question on exp dividends on one of the topic tests online, where I got the answer using the Schweser formula. The same I used for the eoc question as well and got it.

But they are clearly different

follow curriculum I picked that one too and the formula will give u different answers but the one given in curriculum makes sense

On this note, do the formulas calculating the target payout ratio match in schweser & curriculum readings?
