    The fair value of the stock under constant growth model is $60.95. This is the most that should be paid for the stock today.

    Explanation:

    The price of the stock for a company having constant dividend growth can be calculated using the constant growth model of DDM. The formula for the constant growth model is:

    P0 or price today = D0 * (1+g) / r - g

    Where,

    D0 * (1+g) is the dividend expected for the next period or D1. r is the required rate of return g is the growth rate in dividends

    P0 = 2.3 * (1+0.06) / (0.1 - 0.06)

    P0 = $60.95
