Answer:

$157.14

Explanation:

Calculation for how much will you pay for the company's stock today

Using this formula

P0 = D1 / (Ke - g)

Where,

P0 = Price of Share

D1 = Current Dividend=$3.30

Ke = Cost of Equity=5.40%

g = growth rate=3.30%

Let plug in the formula

P0 = $3.30/ (5.40%-3.30%)

P0 = $3.30/0.021

P0= $157.14

Therefore the amount that you will pay for the company's stock today will be $157.14
