- Company plans to pay annual dividend of $0.20 a share for three years commencing three years from today.

D3 = $0.20

D4 = $0.20

D5 = $0.20

Thereafter beginning in year 6 company will pay constant dividend of $1 a share forever.

So, D6 = $1

Required Rate of Return(Ke) = 15%

Calculating the Current Price of Share:-

P0 = $0.1315 + $0.1144 + $0.0994 + $3.3145

P0 = $3.66

SO, the amount you are willing to pay for the stock is $3.66
