Explanation / Answer

Answer: we will use the dividend discount model for the fixed dividend

Intrinsic value = Fixed dividend/ discount rate

Intinsic value at the starting of 8th year will be this

Intrinsic value = 6.20/0.087 = 71.26

Now to find the stock price today we will have to find the present value of this

Present value = value/(1 + dicount rate) ^( no of years)

Present value = 71.26/(1+0.087)^7

Present value = 39.74

No of years has been taken 7 as the intinsic value we calculated is at the starting of 8th year

Intrinsic value today is 39.74

option A is the anaswer
