Answer:

$15.07

Explanation:

[tex]P4=\frac{D5}{(ke-g)}[/tex]

Where,

P4 is the price after 4 years

Ke is the required return = 15.00%

g is the growth rate = 3.5%

D5 is dividend at the end of year:

[tex]=Dividend\ per\ share\times(1+g)^{t}[/tex]

[tex]=1.46\times(1.035)^{5}[/tex]

      = 1.7340

Therefore,

[tex]P4=\frac{1.7340}{(15\ percent-3.5\ percent)}[/tex]

[tex]P4=\frac{1.7340}{11.5\ percent}[/tex]

          = $15.07

Hence, the price of this stock be in 4 years if investors require an annual return of 15 percent is $15.07.
