Answer:
Current stock price = $24.23
Explanation:
Stock price under Discounted Model:
P0 = D1 \div(Ke - g)
P0 = Current Market price of the share
g = Growth rate = 5.0%
Ke = Cost of equity = 11.5% p.a
D1 = Expected dividend = $1.50 (1 + 0.05)= $1.575
P0 = $1.575 / (11.50% - 5.0%)
Current stock price = $24.23
