    The stock price is $31.14

    Explanation:

    The value of Brickhouse stock today is the present values of future cash flows from the stock discounted using the required rate of return of 10.7% as the discount rate as done below:

    Years cash flows discount factor Present values

    1 $2.85 1 / (1+10.7%) ^1=0.903342367 $2.57

    2 $2.34 1 / (1+10.7%) ^2=0.816027432 $1.91

    3 & beyond * $32.67 1 / (1+10.7%) ^2=0.816027432 $ 26.66

    total present values = $31.14

    * the year 3 and beyond represents the terminal value of the stock, which is computed using the formula below

    =D2 * (1+g) / r-g

    D2 is the year dividend of $2.34

    g is the dividend growth rate of 3.3%

    r is the required rate of return which 10.7%

    terminal value=$2.34 * (1+3.3%) / (10.7%-3.3%)

    =2.41722 / 0.074 = $32.67
