Answer: Price is $1

Step-by-step explanation:

we can use the perpetuity formula to calculate the present value of a share, the present value of share represents the maximum amount that an investor would be willing to pay for a share

Dividends = 0.15 cents

required rate of return = 15%

Present value = 0.15 cents/0.15 = 1

Price =$1
