If the required return is 11.4 percent, what is the current value of one share of this stock

MV=$46.5

Explanation:

MV=D1/(Ke-g)

Mv=1.15/(.114-0.089)

MV=46.5

Where MV=?

Ke=11.4%

g=8.95% it calculated by discounting all dividends with Ke

D1=1.15

The present value of the stock is $46.50

Explanation:

Current Value of the stock equals present value of all future cash flows

P = Future value/1+ Discount rate ^n
