| Risk Free Rate ,Rf | 
 1.00%  |

| Cost Of Equity,Ke = Rf + (Rm-Rf)*Beta | 
 7.00%  |

Now we will calculate the value willing to pay for this stock.
| Cost Of Equity,Ke | 
 7.00%  | 
||
| Growth Rate,G | 
 3%  | 
||
| Recent Dividend ,D0 | 
 1.25  | 
||
| Expected Dividend , D1 = D0*(1+G) | 
 1.2875  | 
||
| Stock Value =D1/(Ke-g) | 
 32.19  | 
The value willing to pay for this stock = $32.19.
The value willing to pay for this stock = $32.19.
