Answer:

$13.06

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question

Expected dividend pay every year = $1.10

And the equity cost of capital is 8.4%

So, the price expected to pay per share ten years in future is

= Expected dividend pay every year ÷ the equity cost of capital

= $1.10 ÷ 8.4%

= $13.06

By dividing the expected dividend by the equity cost of capital we can get the price
