Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Dividend pay in year 7, D7 = $2 per share

Growth rate of dividend, g = 2.2 percent per year

Required return, ke = 16 percent

Present value of the future dividend at year 6:

= D7 ÷ (ke - g)

= $2 ÷ (0.16 - 0.022)

= $14.49

Therefore, the present value of dividend now is as follows;

= Present value of the future dividend at year 6 × (1 + ke)^{-6}

= $14.49 × (1 + 0.16)^{-6}

= $5.95
