Answer:

$41.39

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Annul Dividend paid, D0 = $2.84 per share

Growth rate, g = 1.85% = 0.0185

Rate of return required, r = 10.4% = 0.104

Now,

Current price of the stock at year 11 = D12 ÷ [ r - g]

= [ $2.84 × (1 + g)¹²] ÷ [ r - g]

=  [ $2.84 × (1 + 0.0185)¹²] ÷ [ 0.104 - 0.0185]

= 3.539 ÷ 0.0855

= $41.39
