    Price of share = $112.496

    Explanation:

    According to the dividend valuation model, the current price of a stock is the present value of the expected future dividends discounted at the required rate of return.

    So we will discount the steams of dividend using the required rate of 16.0% as follows

    Year Present Value

    1 2.95 * 1.28 * 1.16^ (-1) = 3.178

    2 2.95 * 1.28^2 * 1.16^ (-2) = 3.591

    3 2.95 * 1.28^3 * 1.16^ (-3) = 3.963

    Year 4 and beyond

    Present Value in year 3 = (2.95 * 1.28^3 * 1.064) / (0.28-0.064) = 68.568

    Present value in year 0 = 68.56813227 * 1.16^ (-3) = 43.92

    Price of share = 3.1788 + 3.591 + 3.963 + 43.928

    = 112.496

    Price of share = $112.496
