Explanation / Answer

Answer:

Market value of stock = Present value of next 3 years dividend + PV of stock price at the end of 3rd year

= PV of {$6.68(1+0.14) + $6.68(1+0.14)2 + $6.68(1+0.14)3} + PV of {Dividend in 4th year/(required rate od return - Growth rate)}

= $7.62/1.26 + 8.68/ (1.26)2 + 9.9/(1.26)3 + PV of {9.9(1.13) / (0.26-0.13)}

= $6.05 + 5.47 + 4.95 + 86.05/(1.26)3 = $59.48 (ans)
