Answer:

P0 = $21

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the constant growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock today. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under this model is,

P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)

Where,

Do is dividend today

g is the growth rate

r is the required rate of return or discount rate

P0 = 1 * (1+0.05) / (0.1 - 0.05)

P0 = $21
