Answer:

Since the current stock's price should be $11.97, then the stock is overpriced, so you should not buy it.

Explanation:

if we use the dividend growth model to determine the intrinsic stock price:

Div₃ = $2.00

Div₄ = $2.12 (6% growth rate)

using the dividend growth model we can determine the terminal price of the stock in year 3

P₃ = $2.12 / (18% - 6%) = $17.67

terminal price in year 3 = $2 + $17.67 = $19.67

to determine the present value of the stock we must discount the future value by 18%:

present value = $19.67 / (1 + r)ⁿ = $19.67 / 1.18³ = $11.97

Since the current stock's price should be $11.97, then the stock is overpriced.
