Answer:
$13.89
Explanation:
The computation of the value of stock is shown below:
Year Dividend Present value factor at 16% Present value Â
1 Â Â Â Â $1.90 Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 0.862 Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â $1.64
2 Â Â Â Â $2.10 Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 0.743 Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â $1.56
3 Â Â Â Â $2.30
Price $14.375 Â Â Â Â Â Â 0.743 Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â $10.68
The price is computed below:
= $2.30 ÷ 16% = $14.375
Total present value $13.89
The present value factor is computed below:
= 1 ÷ (1 + rate) ^ years
For Year 1 = 1 ÷ 1.16^1 = 0.862
For Year 2 = 1 ÷ 1.16^2 = 0.743
