Answer:
The stock price today is $ 29.56
Explanation:
Dividend for year 1, d₁ = $ 3.65
Dividend for year 2, d₂ = $ 2.66
Required rate = 12.3% = 0.123
Growth rate = 3.3% = 0.033
Value after year 2= (d₂ × Growth rate) ÷ (Required rate - Growth rate)
= (2.66 × 1.033) ÷ (0.123 - 0.033)
=30.5308889
Hence current price = Future dividend and value × Present value of discounting factor(rate%,time period)
= (3.65÷1.123) + (2.66÷[tex]1.123^2[/tex] ) + (30.5308889 ÷[tex]1.123^2[/tex] )
=$29.56
