Value of stock = $41.75

Explanation:

The price of a stock using the dividend valuation model is the present value of the the future dividend expected from the stock discounted at the required rate of return.

value of dividend from year 1 to 3

Year                                                     Present Value  

1               2.28× 1.08^1 × 1.13^(1-) =           2.179

2             2.28× 1.08^2 × 1.13^(-2) =         2.083

3.              2.28 × 1.08^3 × 1.13^(-3)=          1.991

Present value of Dividend in Year 4 and beyond

This will be done in two steps

Step 1  :PV in year 3 terms  

= Dividend in year 4× (1.06)/(0.1-0.06)

2.28 × 1.08^3  × 1.07/(0.13-0.07)=  51.220

step 2 : PV in year 0 terms =

PV in year 3 × 1.1^(-3)

=51.220 × 1.13^(-3)= 35.498

Value of stock =  2.179  +2.083  +1.991 + 35.498 = 41.75

Value of stock = $41.75
