Stock price

Explanation / Answer

Current stock price=Dividend for next period/(Required return-Growth rate)

=(1.65*1.05)/(0.12-0.05)=$24.75

Price in 3 years=Current price(1+Growth rate)^3

=$24.75(1.05)^3=$28.65(Approx)

Price in 14 years=Current price(1+Growth rate)^14

$24.75(1.05)^14=$49.00(Approx).
