Explanation / Answer

D0 = 2.16

D1 = 2.16 * 1.16

D1 = 2.51

D2 = 2.51 * 1.032 = 2.59

P1 = D2/ (Required Rate - Growth Rate)

P1 = 2.59/ (13.6% - 3.2%)

P1 = 24.86

P0 = (2.51 + 24.86)/ (1.136)

P0 = 24.09

Expected Dividend Yield = D1/ P0

Expected Dividend Yield = 2.51/ 24.09

Expected Dividend Yield = 10.40%
