Explanation / Answer

Current Stock price = 1.90*(1+6%)/(10%-6%)

=$50.35

----------------------------------------------

Stock price  in three years = 1.90*(1+6%)^4/(10%-6%)

=$59.97

--------------------------------------------------

stock price be in 5 years =

1.90*(1+6%)^6/(10%-6%)

=$67.38

-------------------------------------------------

2. Required rate of return = 1.84/36+5%

=10.11%
