Answer:

$93.20

Explanation:

Given the following from the question

Future value of stock = $90

PV Factor = Future Value ÷ (1+ interest rate %)

Hence, we have Present value of stock as => 90 ÷ (1.03) = $87.378640777

Present value of dividends = 6 ÷1.03 = $5.8252427184

Total of present value of stock and dividend =$87.378640777 + 5.8252427184 = $93.20

Hence, in this case, the correct answer is = $93.20
