Respuesta :

Answer:

option (c) $19.47

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Annual divided just paid, D0 = $2.20

Growth rate = 2.2% = 0.022

Required rate of return = 14% = 0.14

Now,

Current price of the share = [ D0 × ( 1 + g )² ] ÷ [ r - g ]

= [ $2.20 × ( 1 + 0.022 )² ] ÷ [ 0.14 - 0.022 ]

= $2.2978648 ÷ 0.118

= $19.47

Hence,

The answer is option (c) $19.47
