Expert Solution

Annual Dividend= $2.45

Discount Rate = 9.5%

Now Using Algebraic formula of PV of Perpetuity = Dividend/Discount rate=2.45/9%= $25.79

Now using Excel sheet the following is the solution

Rate of Interest	9.50%
NPER	999	(No. of Payments - Although this should be infinite but using 999 gives an approximation of the same)
PMT	2.45	Dividend value

Present Value of Perpetuity			25.78947
				Rate of Interest	9.50%

				PMT	2.45	Divident value

				Present Value of Perpetuity			25.78947
