    56.47% is the current share price

    Explanation:

    To solve this question, we use the mathematical approach.

    First, we calculate the current share price =

    $8.45*Present value of annuity factor (11.2%,13)

    But before we can get the value for the current share price, we need the value for the present value of annuity factor.

    Present value of annuity factor = Annuity[1 - (1+interest rate) ^-time period]/rate =

    8.45[1 - (1.112) ^-13]/0.112=

    = $8.45*6.682519757 = 56.47%
