Answer:

(a) $4.08

(b) $51.03

Explanation:

Constant growth rate for earnings:

= (EPS for any year ÷ EPS for the previous year) - 1

= (8.40 ÷ 8.00) - 1

= 0.05

= 5%

(a) EPS for 2016 = EPS for 2015 × (1 + 5%)

                          = 9.72 × 1.05

                          = $10.21          

Dividend for 2016 = 40% × EPS for 2016

                               = 40% × 10.206

                               = $4.08

(b) Stock Price at the beginning of 2016:

= Dividend for 2016 ÷ (Required rate of return - Constant growth rate)

= 4.0824 ÷ (0.13 - 0.05)

= $51.03
