Answer:

Price of share today = $23.17

Explanation:

The value of a stock using the dividend valuation model, is the present value of the expected cash inflows discounted at the required rate of return. The required rate of return is the cost of equity.

The cost of equity is 10% in this scenario

The price of the share will be determined as follows:

                                                                                  $

Present value of Dividend in yr 1 = 1.40× 1.1^(-1)=    1.27

Present value of Dividend  in yr 2 = 1.50 × 1.1^(-2)=1.24

Present value of share in yr 2 = 25× 1.1^(-2) =       20.66

Present value of total  cash inflow                         23.17

Price of share today = $23.17

Stocks are considered as a financial instruments that represents a firm's ownership stake. Stocks are tool for investors to grow their money and surpass inflation over time.

 

The computation of the capital gain for the first year is shown below;

Current value = Future dividend and value × Present value of discounting factor(rate%, time period)

= $1.4 ÷ 1.1  + $1.5 ÷ 1.1^2 + $25 ÷ 1.1^2

= $23.15

Hence, the capital gain for the first year is $23.15
