Answer:

Current share price=$3.15

Explanation:

The current share price of the stock can be expressed as;

Current stock value=D1/(k-g)

where;

D1=Expected annual dividend per share

k=required rate of return

g=growth rate of dividend

In our case;

D1=Average dividend per share=(5.6+16.6+21.6+3.4)/4

D1=47.2/4=$11.8

k=9%

g=5.25%

Replacing;

Current share price=11.8/(9-5.25)

Current share price=11.8/3.75

Current share price=$3.15
