Answer:

The value or price of the preferred stock should be around $66.46.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is determined by dividing the annual dividend of $5.25 by the required return rate of 7.9%. It represents the amount that investors are willing to pay for the stock based on the expected future dividends.
