    The answer it's $2,38, it would be Option A, because I think the number is wrong is not 2,83 if not 2,38.

    Explanation:

    To know the value of the stock we have to find the Present value of each dividend today, it will be:

    The formula to applied it's:

    Principal Present Value = CF / (1 + r) ^t

    Y1: $1,20 / (1+0,17) = $1,03

    Y2: $1,00 / (1+0,17) ^2 = $0,73

    Y2: $1,00 / (1+0,17) ^3 = $0,62

    Present Value of Stock: $2,38

    1 2 3 Year

    $ 1,20 $ 1,00 $ 1,00 Dividend

    17% 17% 17% Rate of Return

    1,03 0,73 0,62 Present Value = $2,38
