Answer:

Stock price =$38.02

Explanation:

The price of a share can be calculated using the dividend valuation model

According to this model the value of share is equal to the sum of the present values of its future cash dividends discounted at the required rate of return.

If dividend is expected to grow at a given rate , the value of a share is calculated using the formula below:

Price=Do (1+g)/(k-g)

Year                                                  PV of dividend

1             2.19× (1.15)× 1.107^(-1)      =2.275

2             2.19× 1.15× 1.1 × 1.107^(-2) = 2.260

Year 3 dividend              

PV in year 2 = 2.19× 1.15× 1.1 ×1.037/(0.107-0.037) = 41.04

PV in year 0 =  41.040 × 1.107(-2) = 33.490

Stock price =

2.27 +  2.260+ 33.490

=$38.02
