a)
Current stock price = D1 / required rate - growth rate
Current stock price = (1.6 * 1.06) / 0.1 - 0.06
Current stock price = 1.696 / 0.04
Current stock price = $42.40
b)
Stock price in 3 years = Present value (1 + r)n
Stock price in 3 years = 42.4 (1 + 0.06)3
Stock price in 3 years = 42.4 * 1.191016
Stock price in 3 years = $50.50
c)
Stock price in 12 years = Present value (1 + r)n
Stock price in 12 years = 42.4 (1 + 0.06)12
Stock price in 12 years = 42.4 * 2.012196
Stock price in 12 years = $85.32
