Expert Solution

Dividend just paid(D0) = $1.30

Growth rate of Dividend in next year = 11%

Expected Dividend one year from now(D1) = D0*(1+ Growth rate) = $1.30*(1+0.11)

D1 = $1.443

Growth rate of Dividend two years from now = 8%

Expected Dividend two year from now(D2) = D1*(1+ Growth rate) = $1.443*(1+0.08)

D2 = $1.55844

Therafter, Dividend will grow at a constant rate(g) = 5% per year forever

Required return(ke) = 12%

Calculating the Price of Stock:-

P0 = $1.288 + $1.242 + $18.636

P0 = $21.17

So, fair price for this stock today is $21.17
