Answer:
For 100 shares, the mount that should be paid = $1766
Explanation:
We have to calculate the price of the stock in the 4th year because the investor cannot afford the stock in another 3 years.
Price of the stock = Do + g / ke - g
Dividend in current year = $1.2
Dividend after 1 year = 1.2 +2.5% (1.2)= 1.23
Dividend after 2 years = 1.23 + 2.5%(1.23) = 1.26075
Dividend after 3 years = 1.26075 + 2.5%(1.26) = 1.29227
Price in 4th year = 1.29227 + 2.5% / (0.10 - 0.025)
=1.29227 + 2.5%(1.29227)/0.075
= 17.66
Therefore, for 100 shares, the mount that should be paid = 17.66 * 100 = $1766
