Year Dividend Present value factor at 16% Present value  

1         $1.90                0.862                               $1.64

2        $2.10                 0.743                               $1.56

3        $2.30

Price $14.375             0.743                               $10.68

The price is computed below:

= $2.30 ÷ 16% = $14.375

Total present value $13.89

The present value factor is computed below:

= 1 ÷ (1 + rate) ^ years

For Year 1 = 1 ÷ 1.16^1 = 0.862

For Year 2 = 1 ÷ 1.16^2 = 0.743

natulia [17]

Answer:

$5.76

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the price of a put option with the same exercise price

We would be Using put-call parity and solving for the put price

$67 + P = $70e^–(.026)(3/12)+ $3.21

$67 + P = $70e^–(.026)(.25)+ $3.21

$67 + P =190.2797^–(0.0065)+ $3.21

$67 + P =$69.5465+ $3.21

$67 + P =$72.7565

P=$72.7565-$67

P=$5.7565

P=$5.76 (Approximately)

Therefore the price of a put option with the same exercise price will be $5.76
