Answer: $43

Explanation:

The current stock price will be calculated as:

= Do(1 - g) / (Ke + g)

where,

Do = $ 4.90

g = 2.50%

Ke = 8.60%

Po = [4.90 - (1 - 0.025)] / [0.086 + 0.025]

Po = 4.7775 / 0.111

Po = $43

The price of one share of the stock today will be $43

Asset turnover = Sales/Total Assets

= $20,710,000/$9,900,000 = 2.1 times

Return on equity = Net Income/Total Equity * 100

= $1,980,000/$5,300,000 * 100
