Answer:

$66.99

Explanation:

The computation of value of the stock is shown below:-

= Dividend in year 1 ÷ (1 + required rate of return) + 1 ÷ (1 + required rate of return) × ((Dividend in year 1 × (1 + growth rate) ÷ (required rate of return - growth rate))

= ($2.33 × 1.15) ÷ 1.06 + 1 ÷ 1.06 × (($2.33 × 1.15 × 1.02) ÷ (0.06 - 0.02))

= $2.6795  ÷ 1.06 + 1 ÷ 1.06 × ($2.73309  ÷ 0.04)

= $2.527830189  + 0.943396226  × $68.32725

= $2.527830189  + 64.45966981

= $66.9875

or $66.99

Therefore for computing the value of stock we simply applied the above formula.
