Answer:

The  price of the stock is [tex]P_o = \$ 33.9[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The dividend is  [tex]k = \$ 1.20[/tex]

     The expected growth rate is  [tex]r = 13\% = 0.13[/tex]

      The required rate of return is  [tex]K_e = 17 \% = 0.17[/tex]

The new dividend after 12 months is mathematically represented as

          [tex]D_1 = k * (1 + r)[/tex]

substituting values

           [tex]D_1 = 1.20 * (1 + 0.13)[/tex]

           [tex]D_1 = \$ 1.356[/tex]

The  price of the stock the price of stock is mathematically represented as

        [tex]P_o = \frac{D_1}{ K_e - r }[/tex]

substituting values

       [tex]P_o = \frac{ 1.356}{ 0.17 - 0.13 }[/tex]

       [tex]P_o = \$ 33.9[/tex]
