O Answer is complete and correct. Expected dividend yield 12.26 O %

Explanation / Answer

Answer : part c

Expected price to be one year from now:

Current price (po) =

( Price at the end of year 1(P1) + Dividend at the end of year 1 )/ (1 + Market capitalization rate )^1

15.92 = [P1 + 1.60(1 + 0.22)] / (1+0.23)

15.92 = [P1 + 1.952)/ (1.23)

15.92 x 1.23 = P1 + 1.952

P1 = 15.92 x 1.23 - 1.952

P1 = 19.5816 - 1.952

P1 = $17.63

So price to be one year from now. $17.63 (answer)
