Answer #1

value of stock = Present value of dividends + Horizontal value

Horizontal value = dividend next year/(Required return - growth rate)

=>

horizontal value = 3.93 * 1.15^3/0.14

= 42.6931339286

value of stock = 3.93*1.15/1.14 + 3.93*1.15^2/1.14^2 + 3.93*1.15^3/1.14^3 +  42.6931339286/1.14^3

= 40.82

closest choice is B) 43
