    Explanation:

    Given data

    annual dividend D = $2.75 per share

    reducing the dividends d = 10 percent annually = 0.10

    rate of return r = 11.5 percent = 0.115

    to find out

    How much are you willing to pay today

    solution

    first we calculate the purchase price that is

    purchase price = D / (r + d)

    put all these value

    purchase price = 2.75 / (0.115 + 0.10)

    purchase price = 2.75 / 0.215

    purchase price = 12.79069

    so you willing to pay today to purchase stock in this company is $12.79
